Soulmask is an exciting indie survival game that follows the story of the player's character as they escape from an ancient ritual and flee. After fleeing, they come across an ancient mask that grants them special powers.

Upon finding the mask, players will be asked to pick their starting mask from three. This mask is meant to help players build their character and start their quest to survive. Here's a guide breaking down each mask.

It is important to note that players will want to pick a mask based on how they want to play . This means that there isn't really a "best" or "worst" mask, it is all based on how the player wants to play.
