Immediate controls
One swipe means one lane. One tap means one jump. The game aims to respond before the player has time to reconsider.
About the game
Small controls. Fast decisions.
PANIC! is an original arcade game designed and published by MoorLogic in the United Kingdom for quick play on the web and mobile devices.
Why five lanes?
The game began with one constraint: a swipe should always have a clear meaning. Five fixed lanes make every horizontal gesture an exact one-lane choice while leaving enough room for route planning, traps and last-second escapes.
Movement, jumping and scoring use the same rules across the browser, Android and iOS editions. The presentation adapts to each platform, while a run should still feel like the same PANIC! yard.
Design principles
Built for one more go
Readable danger
Each obstacle follows a consistent rule, and upcoming rows remain visible so survival depends on decisions rather than hidden surprises.
No account wall
You can play immediately. Preferences and the best score remain on the device, without a PANIC! login or player profile.
