Blacktail is a first-person action-adventure game where players can wield a bow and arrow as their only weapon.

Players will also unlock corresponding Hexes when unlocking skills, each of which provides different bonuses. The following is all you need to know about Hexes, and how to unlock them in Blacktail.
What are Hexes in Blacktail
Hexes are bonus attributes that players can unlock by unlocking a certain number of skills. Most skills are categorized under a certain Hex which is indicated by the Hex logo on the top of each skill. There are four Hexes: Hare Hex, Goat Hex, Raven Hex, and Snake Hex. Each Hex provides a different bonus, and players can select which Hex they wish to activate by opening the cauldron from the Hut. Only one Hex can be active at a time.
