This is a top five all-time scenario. The fundamentals are solid, and the gimmick is great. Perhaps germane to the recent discussion here concerning Arkham Horror Second Edition, it's scenarios like Threads and Midnight Masks (which, as you noted, this is clearly modeled on and inspired by) that transform the card game into an adventure game like its namesake. Your goal is wide, your time is thin, do the best you can. And sometimes you can feel clever by advancing and completing acts that line up just right to save you a bunch of time running back and forth.
