Chain Panic
Read full descriptionHide full description
Two shuttles. One chain. Zero room for error. Chain Panic is a one-touch space arcade. You steer two linked shuttles through a storm of missiles, meteors and asteroids. Drag anywhere to move them together — or use two fingers to stretch and squeeze the chain and thread gaps that look impossible. HOW IT PLAYS • Drag with one finger to move both shuttles at once • Pinch with two fingers to shorten the chain and slip through narrow gates • Your lasers fire automatically — line up the shot while you dodge • Every hit costs hull. Grab hearts and shields to stay alive 12 ZONES, 12 SETS OF ENEMIES Star Field, Asteroid Belt, Frozen Belt, Ion Storm, Black Hole Edge, Gamma Burst, Solar Core, End of the Universe. Each zone has its own enemy designs, colours, music and hazards. You can only conquer one new zone per run, so every session pushes the frontier a little further. WEEKLY TOURNAMENT Your weekly total is what counts, and higher zones pay far more per second — Zone 12 scores more than five times faster than Zone 1. The board rewards players who dare to go deep instead of farming the easy start. Resets every Monday. BUILD YOUR FLEET • 17 ships, each with its own laser power • Permanent upgrades: laser damage, fire rate, hull armour • Chain effects: neon, stardust, rainbow, champion • 41 achievements, daily missions, a daily challenge and a 20-tier season pass PLAY YOUR WAY Free to play with ads. A single Premium purchase removes every ad forever and adds 2x coins, a head start on every run, all power-ups automatically, and three exclusive ships. No subscription, no timers.
