What is The Flock?
In this first-person multiplayer thriller, three to five players compete in short matches across three maps. You seek a light artifact as an agile monster; claiming it turns you into the slower, vulnerable Carrier, the only role that can win. The Carrier uses the light against attackers, while monsters can stand still to turn to stone and become immune.
