Masks Playtest Quick First impressions
The gmae plays really fast. We could a lot of stuff done in 3 hours and that was with not knowing the system well.
I fear adults influencing heroes can be clunky and I don’t know how often that should happen. Imagine Doctor Doom ranting at the FF how useless and pedestrian they are and then every player having to decide if they are okay with that or not and then either having to think aobut adjusting their stats or having all of them roll and see what is happening, making choices etc. It might destroy the flow of the scene. Not sure yet.
Constantly shifting statlines are super cool though. Really interesting mechanic.
We were a bit confused sometimes about what moves to pick; especially when they were doing things with powers. Is that unleashing or the move that fits a bit better.
I am not sure really when inflicting conditions is right or not. Probably more often then not but guidelines on that will help.
All in all it was really fun though. The game did what I wanted it to do.
