Eternal Lies is a massive campaign in the tradition of Masks of Nyarlathotep.[1][2] The print edition was also published in a special pre-release bundle with the soundtrack album by James Semple and a PDF.[3]

Reception

edit

John O'Neill reviewed Eternal Lies for Black Gate, and stated that "Eternal Lies maintains the extremely high standards of the previous adventures. There are a number of excellent twists and turns in the story, as the players confront a worldwide cult and the alien forces behind it and take on an escalating quest to save humanity. There's a lot of material here, but the writing is top notch and the book is a real pleasure to read."[1]

Justin Alexander reviewed it on his blog, The Alexandrian, calling it "an amazing campaign[….] Despite the incredibly high esteem in which I hold the Masks of Nyarlathotep, however, I’m of the opinion that Eternal Lies is even better."[2]

Eternal Lies won the 2014 Gold ENnie Awards for Best Adventure and the Silver ENnie for Best Production Values.[4]
