Hunter vs Deer

If you get to play as the hunter, You'll have to rely on sound and the use of gadgets to spot the deer. The goal is to eliminate all players who are deer. However, it should be noted that not all deer you see in the game are actually players.

On the other hand, if you get to play as a deer, you have to evade the hunter as much as you can, particularly through blending in with all the non-player deer. Playing the game as a deer is not as simple as it looks as you will be required to eat to keep your energy up. Eating at the wrong time can expose you to the hunter.

To get a better idea of the game, watch the early access trailer below.
