4.0 out of 5 stars fu
quite expensive for some pieces of cardboard and a timer but an fun game to play with grandchildre
4.0 out of 5 stars Great game but unsure on build quality
Great game idea but the buzzer never worked properly, gets stuck at around the 2 mark so ended up using my own timer for the last part.
4.0 out of 5 stars The buzzer is useless, we used it about 7 times then it stopped
Great game , gets you thinking. Easy box to take about with you . Buzzer is cheap does not work .
This is the BEST game for adults and kids
I love this game, it’s a rare game that will never get old as the answers are always going to be different depending on the day!!
You get a huge amount of question cards too.
Great value for money, great to play just with my partner or as a group too!!

Not as easy as it says on the tin!!!! You get to understand the phrase “don’t panic”!! A good all round game for the family OR a drunken bit of fu
The game about pressure
Easy to setup and simple rules. Can be quick rounds for 6 players to enjoy. Family loved the game, challenged everyone. Topics not too hard so everyone can play no matter age or background.
Great game, started off thinking it would be easy and finish it soon but it quickly turned into the most fun game and got very competitive in our house. Suddenly your mind goes blank when there’s a timer involved. Even my 5 year old was having a go
This game is hilarious. It sounds a bit tame and not overly exciting but the pressure (and loud noise) of the timer makes you, as the name would suggest, “panic”. So much fun and enjoyed by a wide range of ages. My five year old enjoys it, as do his grandparents in their 70s.
Good fun and causes some disputes about the answers so ...
Bought this for my grandson for Christmas – he is 9 – we’ve played it many times already – adults and children together. Good fun and causes some disputes about the answers so be prepared for challenges! Think about 9 is right start age. Games don’t last too long which is good.
Don't Panic
Got this for my son at Christmas as was getting fed up of him playing his DS all the time. It was nice to all spend some quality time playing a board game. It is easy to understand although some of the questions were a bit hard for my son to answer. He is 9 and he got a question about Greek islands, so we changed the subject for him to make it easier. We all enjoyed the game and would recommend it.
Bought as a family board game for Christmas and has stood the test of time. Often these games get ignored after Boxing Day but 5 months later it’s still good fun and tempting enough to get the kids off their tablets. We adjust the rules a bit to make it fairer for the kids (in the last round they move 2 spaces for each correct answer whilst adults move one) works great.
Good fun game for adults
Good fun game for adults. I wouldn’t recommend for young children as it is difficult and can be frustrating at times as you do panic, but that’s the fun for adults playing. You come up with really silly answers or press the buzzer to quickly = cheating. But it is funny. Would recommend for adult fu
Fantastic family game - ages 10 - 87 loved playing this.
I bought this for my 10 year old nephew as our Christmas party game and we all loved it. I look for games that all ages can play together and this is ideal – there are tons of questions and they are very varied and so although my sister in law was miles ahead of the rest of us she lost because she got 3 weird questions on the run. What is really great is that often my youngest nephew gets fed up because he can’t answer as many questions but that isn’t the case with this – we played in pairs and he was proud to get as many right answers as his dad.
Present for 7 year old
I bought this as my nephew who is 7. He was really pleased with it. Its a good game to play at any age. My 5 year old son enjoyed playing this with him as did the older members of the family. I would recommend this game.
Good fun!
Very fast FREE delivery! Came earlier than expected! Brill! Was supposed to be a stocking filler, but we couldn’t resist opening it and having a go!!
Lot’s of fun – kids love watching the adults in a state of *panic* while the timer is running out!
I’m sure we’ll have lots more fun with this game!
Played don’t panic at a friends and was totally hooked so brought one and have had great fun with family p,saying this game the kids love it too and really has given us a few laugh out loud moments with some of the answers when you have to think quickly . It also arrived quicker than I anticipated so well done John Adams & toy brokers !!!
Great game, nothing like an old fashioned board game to bring the family together at christmas! Fortunately there is minimal things to fight over unlike some board games (monopoly!) so you can be sure enough you’ll all have a laugh and a good time without strangling your brother/sister at the end of it!
I bought this game for my sons Christmas and is already one of his favourites. It is soooo funny to watch the kids playing it ~ then even better when you join in. Brilliant family game.
My 10 year old son loves all sorts of board games so I bought this on total impulse for his Christmas present. It wiled away a good chunk of Christmas as we all, children & adults, joined in. A very simple premise with a new twist. We played a self adapted version of the basic premise in the car for a whole journey (nearly 3 hours), the board + timer adds race, though I’d say the rules are a little lacking in flow and a bit clunky near the end of the game but we played without them sometimes. The cards make it easier for those who had a hard time thinking up categories, which is an art in itself. Good wordy sort of game, but one all can play.
