High-Rise Invasion is a very complex show with a lot of overlapping storylines that run at the same time. To truly understand the show, we have to understand the concept and purpose of the masks. There are multiple masked figures in the show whose only purpose seems to kill the humans in the High-Rise world or make them commit suicide. If the masks fail to accomplish that feat, they are programmed to kill themselves.

The mask wearers were originally humans, just like the characters in the show, but their brains have been hacked and the one who hacked them can freely control the masks' behaviour. There are four types of masks introduced in the first season. They are: the smiling masks also called angels, the angry masks, also called guardian angels, the emotionless masks and finally, the faceless masks. The smiling masks are the most common whereas the faceless masks are the rarest.
