ストーリー
Karnok is a wandering warrior and fierce woodsman camping in the shadowy woodlands of Karst, an eerie realm of deadly beasts and dark mysteries. He is a mystery to himself, haunted by a powerful Creature within him. Through fully-voiced encounters, players unravel his origins and decide whether to control the beast or let it loose.
Gameplay
Gameplay revolves around strategic, turn-based board-building using weapons, skills, tools, and combos without real-time pressure. Karnok introduces an exclusive Rage mechanic, where accumulating Rage removes debuffs, reduces cooldowns, and eventually triggers a devastating beast transformation to obliterate AI creatures and rival players' asynchronous setups.

Timeline
Mastering the Rage Mechanic
Karnok's gameplay revolves around Rage. Gaining +5 Rage per item use, players can build up to ~100 Rage to trigger a monstrous transformation. Along the way, Rage acts as a powerful utility—automatically removing debuffs like slow or freeze, and reducing item cooldowns by 10%.
