Episode 3

The Mask

Who are you when no one is watching?

You wake up to discover that everyone around you has begun wearing masks — literal masks that display the persona they present to the world. Yours is missing. As you move through a city of masks, you must decide: find your old mask, build a new one, or face the world bare.

Psychology Basis

Based on Carl Jung's concept of the Persona — the social mask we present to the world. Jung described the persona as necessary for social functioning but dangerous when confused with the true self. "The persona is a complicated system of relations between individual consciousness and society, fittingly enough a kind of mask, designed on the one hand to make a definite impression upon others, and on the other to conceal the true nature of the individual."
