Masquerade

Isaac finds himself caught amongst a swirling, twirling mass, surrounded on all sides by unknown assailants. Orchestrating this, hidden deep within the pulsating crowd, is the Mask of Infamy. Your only chance of escape is to find the Mask and bring the revelry to an end – easier said than done when you can barely even tell friend from foe…

Competitive Variant

This challenge is primarily designed for solo and co-op mode, but you can also play a game of regular competitive Four Souls with an added twist.

Setup as normal for a competitive game. Place Anonymous Mask of Infamy face up to one side of the monster slots in a final boss slot (use the competitive variant version of Anonymous Mask of Infamy).

Anonymous Mask of Infamy only looks at the number of souls controlled by the attacking player, rather than all players, in the competitive variant. The other change is that rather than going into minion slots, monsters go into crowd slots.

Crowd Slots are a new type of slot specific to this challenge. They broadly work the same way as minion slots (e.g. they are also temporary). The difference is that each player has their own personal crowd slots, and players may only attack monsters in their own crowd slots. They can be thought of as minion slots that are only active on the turn of that specific player.

FAQ

I’ve been told I must attack the final boss, do I then need to roll for its ability?
Yep! If you are instructed to attack the final boss by the global modifier Mistaken Identity, then you will first have to roll – if you roll below the number needed for the difficulty you have chosen, you lose the Anonymous Mask of Infamy in the crowd and will have to attack a new minion instead of being able to attack the final boss.

I’ve been told to attack another player but I’m playing solo, what do I do?
Remember the general challenge rules here – for the sake of targeting and abilities (like that of the global modifier Mistaken Identity in this case) each character is considered a separate player when playing solo.
