Game Description
Game overview
Panic of the Apes is a fast-paced, 1–4 player party game where you compete to collect the most bananas before a volcano erupts. Grab bananas, knock out rivals to steal theirs, use power-ups from chests, and dodge volcanic hazards. First player to win three rounds becomes King Chimp.
Gameplay
Best-of-three rounds: Each round lasts 2–3 minutes (configurable).
Banana collection: Shake banana trees, grab dropped bananas, or steal from downed opponents.
Combat: Throw bananas to knock others out, use melee to deflect projectiles, or dodge roll for brief invincibility and deflection.
Power-ups: Chests contain shields, keys for locked chests, or bananas. Locked chests contain more powerful items and effects.
Environment: Lavaballs start falling late in the round; run to the safe zone to avoid them but watch out for other players doing the same. Most bananas when time hits zero wins the round.
