Critic Reviews
Eurogamer
By Ruth CassidyMask of the Rose is an incredibly ambitious dating sim - for better and worse, as its complexity is its greatest constraint.
GameBlast
By Ivanir IgnacchittiMask of the Rose is a visual novel with a plot that plays with an over-the-top supernatural situation in a well-developed context of a Victorian society. Trying to offer a lot of freedom to the player action but respecting a somewhat restrictive plot core, the work has good and bad points to it but it's a good choice for those who love interactive narratives.
PC Gamer
By Joshua WolensMask of the Rose's writing and characters shine, but the game underneath them never fully gels together.
GameLuster
By Kate Mitchell JewettMask of the Rose is a wickedly clever romance/mystery hybrid with an intriguing setting, a twisty story, unique mechanics, and an open approach that is accepting of all genders and identities.
TechRaptor
ByMask of the Rose is a solid offering by Failbetter games, with a deep story, interesting characters, and a fun clothing system, but an unfortunately hard to grasp storytelling system. (Review Policy)
