Masquerade

About

You play a sleuth chasing down a mobster in this 1983 adventure game. Solve puzzles and gather clues through turn-based exploration, using a simple command system to interact with objects and people. The story unfolds in text with occasional graphics, pushing you to piece together secrets behind the crime boss’s empire. Single-player only, with a focus on logic and inventory management. Set in a gritty urban world, it leans on its era’s retro charm but holds up for fans of methodical problem-solving. Runs on a mix of early 80s computers, which might feel niche but adds to its throwback appeal. While not a modern benchmark, its no-frills mystery approach has earned it a small cult following among classic adventure purists.
