About Panic In The Woods

Panic In The Woods, is a horror survival and extraction game where you and your friends, equipped with walkie-talkies, must rely on each other to survive as Boy Scouts lost in a creepy forest.
.
A terrifying monster lurks in these woods, and it's up to you to banish it for good! Carefully explore the surrounding and find the keys and corresponding gates that transport you to hellish realms, where you'll need to extract the skulls to perform the demonic ritual!
.
.
Survive together with friends or strangers to outsmart the monster. Talk with your team mates to guide them to important places, and consider using one of them as bait while the rest explore the world. If one of the team members gets caught, they’ll be sent to a cage, and it’s up to the others to free them.
.
.
The monster is always hunting you and your team, and it is very sensitive to noise, so hide and try to remain quiet, or distract it if you can - you only get one chance, and if you get caught, it's game over!
.
.
There are several items at your disposal to help you and your team in this quest - you can use radars to help locate keys and gates, traps and power-ups to evade the monster, or noise producing items to attract it. They are scarce, so use them wisely!

Panic in the Woods, developed and published by Exit Plan Games, is a cooperative horror survival game that blends the tension of extraction gameplay with the primal fear of being hunted in the dark. Set deep within a sprawling forest, it casts players as Boy Scouts who must survive the night while completing a series of rituals to banish a lurking supernatural threat. At its core, it is a game of teamwork, fear, and improvisation—one where the difference between life and death can depend on coordination, timing, and the ability to keep calm when everything around you is falling apart. Though relatively modest in scale and budget, Panic in the Woods manages to carve out a distinct niche within the crowded horror co-op genre, thanks to its blend of atmospheric design, unpredictable objectives, and its focus on teamwork under pressure. The concept is simple but immediately engaging. Each match drops one to four players into a dark forest with a single goal: collect skulls, open portals, and perform a ritual to seal away the monstrous entity hunting them. The forest itself is procedurally structured, meaning the placement of keys, gates, and tools changes with every run. This randomne…

This game had a few fun moments, but overall was frustrating. My friends and I spent a lot of time trying to free one another from the cages. We eventually beat it, but it wasn't worth owning, even on sale. You can see how most people will say there are good ideas, but the game is poorly executed. I completely agree with them. Save your money and find a different game to buy and play.

I don't shy away from difficult games but the stalker in this is ridiculous, especially when it isn't clear what you're doing. Played half an hour with a friend and that was more then enough. Avoid.

bad game because of many reasons the main monster is way to fast and can find someone a mile the time to run suck its 2 second, for example,when you are chased by the monster you can never out run the creep every thing sucks for items like the bear trap
