There are 45 clue handouts and the place of each in the overall jigsaw must be fully understood by the referee before granting the information to the players. There are nearly 100 major non-player characters whose motives must be fully understood. And there are about 25 mini-scenarios, each of which interlinks crucially with all the others. In trying to read and understand all of this information, you'll find yourself with the feeling that your head will burst open from the information overload." However, he lauded the campaign for its "sublime pacing", and complimented it for its non-linear storyline and superior organization. He concluded by giving the book a top score of 10 out of 10, saying, "This remains one of roleplaying's finest moments, the standard by which all other campaigns should be judged. Its intricacy and open-endedness ... make it a shining example of the dizzy heights to which roleplaying can and should aspire... If ever there was a campaign - for any roleplaying system - that could be described as a work of art, this is it. It's a piece of sustained imagination that is the equal of many classics of literature and cinema."<sup id="cite_ref-arcane17_5-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-arcane17-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In the October 1997 edition of <i><a href="/wiki/Dragon_(magazine)" title="Dragon (magazine)">Dragon</a></i> (Issue #240), <a href="/wiki/Rick_Swan" title="Rick Swan">Rick Swan</a> called this campaign "a marvel... a work of staggering power, expertly crafted and unforgettable." He concluded by giving it a top rating of 6 out of 6, saying, "Absorbing, disturbing and astonishingly adept, <i>Masks of Nyarlathotep</i> is the definition of a role-playing masterpiece."<sup id="cite_ref-dragon240_6-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-dragon240-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In the July 1998 edition of <i><a href="/wiki/Dragon_(magazine)" title="Dragon (magazine)">Dragon</a></i> (Issue #249), <a href="/wiki/Ray_Winninger" title="Ray Winninger">Ray Winninger</a> complimented the campaign on its clarity of direction, saying, "<i>Masks</i> was designed in an era in which published adventures were expected to provide clear and specific instructions for running each encounter. Whereas most modern adventures and campaigns present no more than a general blueprint for the game master to follow, <i>Masks</i> rarely misses an opportunity to expound upon each and every one of the options open to the players at any given moment, providing specific advice on how the Keeper might react to all of them." However, Winninger did warn prospective players that "Full enjoyment of the campaign requires an unusually ambitious commitment in both time and intensity from the Keeper and players alike." He also noted the lethality of the campaign, saying, "Players are expected to lose a handful of Investigators along the way." But he concluded with a strong recommendation: "Buy this book — even if you don’t think you can keep a group of players together long enough to finish the campaign, even if you’re not particularly interested in <i>Call of Cthulhu</i>. Merely as an example of good, crisp campaign design, it’s more than worth its comparatively meager price tag. Those of you who actually play <i>Masks</i> are likely to have some of your most memorable game sessions in store for you."<sup id="cite_ref-dragon249_2-2" class="reference"><a
