MEGA TAG PANIC

IT grows. You run.

The tag you played as a kid, with one twist: whoever is IT GROWS every second. Normal size at the start of a round — a doorway-blocking giant by the end.

That's both your danger and your escape. A giant IT can't fit through tunnels and narrow doors, and you learn to use that. But when the round ends the biggest player is eliminated, so IT is in a hurry too.

The slap

Hold left click to charge. Release in the RED zone and it's a SHAAAP — your target is stunned and sent flying. You can slap without being IT, too: shoving a friend into the tagger's arms is entirely legal.

10 characters, 10 powers

Every character has their own power on the F key. No hidden stats beyond that; the rest is up to you.

• Puf — Fluff Cloud: bursts into feathers and vanishes for 3 seconds.

• Alev — Flare Up: blasts high into the air in an instant.

• Balbal — Stone Wall: raises a stone block in front of you for 6 seconds.

• Tekgöz — Hypnosis: whoever you look at gets their steering flipped for 1.5 seconds.

• Buz — Ice Trap: drops a slippery ice pool; anyone stepping on it slides out of control.

• Dikko — Spike Field: leaves spike patches behind; anyone who steps on them slows down.

• Kıvırcık — Headbutt Quake: slams the ground and blasts everyone around away.

• Hayalet — Ghost Walk: passes through anything for 3 seconds.

• Tosbik — Shell Ball: tucks into the shell and rolls forward like a ball; whoever hits it can't tag you, and the slap launches you far away.

• Tilki — Fake Twin: leaves a motionless copy of itself in place for 4 seconds; bots and startled players run at it.

6 modes

• Free For All — classic. Time runs out, IT is eliminated.

• Teams — red and blue. One team freezes, the other thaws.

• Infection — get tagged and you become IT too. Last one standing wins.

• Freeze Tag — tagged players freeze until a friend thaws them.

• Crown Grab — one crown, everyone chases it. Hold it 20 s to win.

• Last One Standing — no tagger. Traps take your three lives. Stay alive.

12 maps, each with its own rules

Manor, Park, Planet, Ship, Glacier, Factory, Water Tower, Windmill, Volcano, Cavern, Arena, Obstacle Course.

The ship rolls while an island slowly draws alongside. The water tower floods. The arena collapses ring by ring. Lava launches you skyward. Every map breaks you differently — or pick SHUFFLE and get a new one each round.

Nobody online?

Bots are a core feature, not filler bolted on later. Easy, normal and hard — on hard they even slap each other. The game is the same whether you're alone or with nine friends.

As you play

Every match earns XP and Panic Points. Levelling up unlocks new perks: faster running, higher jumps, a shorter dash cooldown. Spend your points in the shop on slap skins, tagger trails, pop styles, name colours, badges and extra perks — harder slaps, less knockback, a shorter power cooldown. Only one perk at a time; nobody gets to stack combos.

At the end of a match your photo is taken on the podium, saved to your match history, and you can watch the replay.
