Synchronized Panic!

Online tag

Synchronized Panic! is an online party game of tag for PC. One player is the Tagger, trying to eliminate every Runner before time runs out. The Runners have to stay alive until the end, but avoiding the Tagger is only part of the chase.

Sync and movement

The Tagger can use a Sync ability to make caught Runners copy their movement direction and jumps. That can turn a safe platform into a dangerous drop: when the Tagger jumps, synced characters jump too. Playing as the Tagger means using that control to throw the Runners off course; as a Runner, you have to watch what the Tagger does as well as where you're going.
