Castle Panic is a fantasy-themed, cooperative light tactical wargame for 1-6 players ages 10+, the first in the Panic series. Players unite to defend their castle at the board's center against monsters marching from surrounding forests, trading cards to strike foes, slay them, and strategize tower preservation. While the group wins by surviving the horde or loses if walls and towers fall, individual victory points determine the sole Master Slayer, forcing players to juggle collective defense with personal gain. ---
