How to play Panic Station

Panic Station has players explore a changing station, place tiles, move through its corridors, manage cards and actions, and use dice while trying to deal with threats and possible betrayal. It feels tense and suspicious because one player may be working against the group, so it suits 4 to 6 players who enjoy hidden-traitor games with bluffing and direct conflict. A game takes 40 minutes and is for ages 10 and up.
