In PANICORE , players take on the role of urban explorers drawn to dangerously abandoned places. For these people, it is exciting to discover lost arts, lost treasures and abandoned buildings, schools and other abandoned places. But when they discover a spooky place - one that even the authorities advise against visiting - their adventures take a terrifying turn. The explorers are determined to learn the dark secrets of the abandoned place, so they ignore the warnings and follow their curiosity into its depths. But an unforeseen turn of events quickly puts a stop to their exploration. They unexpectedly find themselves trapped in the abandoned building, with unknown forces blocking their way out. The explorers must work together to endure the horrors within and find a way out before it is too late, as fear sets in and they realize they are not alone. Players must use all their bravery to solve puzzles, navigate the dangerous corridors and outwit the monster that wants to trap them in its evil clutches while time is of the essence. Multiple Escape Routes: Confront a challenge with multiple distinct escape routes. Dynamic Co-op Gameplay: Team up with friends in intense cooperative gameplay. Try to escape alone or together. Relentless Pursuit: Face a relentless AI-driven monster that can hear your every step. Immersive Hide-and-Seek: Utilize your surroundings for survival.

Find Items and Escape: To escape you have to find the right items that are distributed around the location and use them at the right place. Can you make it before it gets you? 

Press reviews: “[...] If you’re braver than me though and happen to be craving a brand new survival horror experience that’ll leave you feeling thoroughly spooked, you may want to take a look at Panicore. [...] Panicore is giving us major Resident Evil vibes [...]” GAMINGbible “[...] ZTEK has managed to craft a surprisingly fun and engaging experience with a brilliantly unnerving atmosphere” PC Invasion “ Scare factor: The fact that the game’s ruined institutional buildings looked just like Shepton Mallet prison, with peeling paint on the walls, rubble everywhere and doorways leading into total darkness, made this a truly horrifying experience .” The Guardian
