I have very fond memories of this adventure as one of the very first I ever cracked to play DND back in the times of 2E. Coming back to it years later obviously it is 2e so lots different from the DND of today but in general still a fun little adventure. It has some encounters that I enjoyed and a classic adventure feel to it with the Pregens either being a fun throwback if you are playing 2e or potentially inspiration for a 5e character adaptation. As far as it goes the adventure feels straightforward, not too daunting to prep, and fun for a group getting started if a little dated in some aspects.

My playgroup has been really enjoying dipping their toes into Masks and Halcyon City Herland Collection was a great addition to the game with playbooks they could take on and tons of plothooks and lore. The vast majority of the book gives great ideas for handouts and storylines that you could pick up for your own table to challenge your heroes and then it presents a set of new playbooks in order to be able to play new types of heroes. My group picked up the Newborn and the Redeemed to add to their superhero team and they brought some really fun themes to the table as an addition. Both the lore/hooks and the playbooks have really helped open up the options and ideas for the world of our game.

Been having a really fun time playing Masks and in particular love the way that the group of heroes comes together in character creation to help build the world of Halycon and populate it with relevant heroes and NPCs in their world. As a narrative game the fiction is really empowered to help drive your adventures and then the moves both general and specific to playbooks give the team a way to interact with one another and showcase their powers without a ton of complex rules. I would recommend this game whole heartedly to comic book fans who want to live out their teen superhero dreams and groups that love to collaborate and work together on building out the world they play in and their heroes.
