How it's structured

4v1 asymmetric multiplayer combat between hunters and a monster is the defining core gameplay loop. Hunters and monster operate by fundamentally different rules, goals, and mechanics—one side hunts and coordinates, the other evades and grows stronger. The hunter team must coordinate and work together through distinct roles to succeed against the monster.
