Together we are Panic Roll! The three of us met at a design studio and realized we had a mutual love for board games. We took it upon ourselves to develop our own in our spare time; our goal being to create a game that anyone can enjoy regardless of their experience with board games. It was a large undertaking, but we learned all we could about game creation and developed the necessary skills along the way - from illustration to mini modeling. We hope you enjoy our first creation, and any others to come!

a little more about us

We're just little guys

Panic Roll is, and always will be, a small but mighty operation! With just the three of us, we're as indie as it gets. We’re a group of friends who met at work and bonded over our mutual love for board games. With our creative backgrounds at the ready, we decided to embark on the journey of board game creation! Since then, we’ve learned to do it all—from game development and mechanics balancing to artwork and mini-modeling, and everything in between.

One day we hope to expand, but for now we’re loving the journey and look forward to bringing you the best games we can create. Thank you for your support!
