Popular varsity athlete Noah Kaplan has gone missing from the town of Carp, Texas.

You must crack codes and hack websites to figure out where he’s gone, why he’s vanished and why the cops are interested in strange graffiti that’s started to appear all over town.

Is Noah in danger? Or is the worst yet to come?

Work together to follow Noah’s online footsteps before the trail goes cold. Every second counts.”

Let the game begin. Let the panic set in.

Panic The Experience was an extremely limited run and was for Amazon Prime customers. This was a free experience and came on a first come, first served basis between June 2nd – June 13th 2021. Although the experience was free, Swamp Motel did not hold back with the production and working with Amazon in creating another fantastic journey that lasts around 60 minutes. 

Panic is American Teen Drama with the following premise – “In the summer after their senior year, 47 graduates participate in the annual Panic competition. Winning Panic with a cash prize of $50,000 will allow them to escape their small Texas town of Carp. After the rules change, however, they must decide what risks they will take in order to escape their home town.”

Storyline & Themeing: 9/10
The story is really what puts you right in the middle of these virtual experiences and Swamp Motel do this perfectly. It sets the story of Panic and leaves you wanting to watch the series. Using video snippets from the show, it adds that layer of what is real and what is not in this incredible production.

Puzzles & Flow: 8/10
Panic The Experience flows effortlessly through the transition of the story to the puzzles. The puzzles are a lot of search and find but these are logical and clever. Following the concept and linking with the story throughout, it all interlinks to create a complete experience.

Uniqueness: 8/10
The system Swamp Motel have built and used throughout their virtual games is unique. The ability to adapt this per game and different story is shown throughout all the games we’ve had the pleasure to play. There is always surprises and additions that keep it fresh, current and different from the rest.

Overall, Swamp Motel have created Panic The Experience as a clever virtual experience that entered us into the world, leaving us to wanting to watch the Amazon Original. In fact, we did watch and complete the Prime series shortly after completing the experience as it looked so good. The experience really helped with enjoying the concept and storyline, especially in a different way to normal.
