Principal Panic is a humor-filled, chaotic multiplayer social party game set in a school. At the start of each round, one player transforms into the vigilant principal; the others play mischievous students aiming to complete tasks and sow chaos. The principal, who must distinguish real students from disguised bots in an environment where everyone looks identical, tries to catch them—while students break school rules by ringing the bell, triggering the fire alarm, smashing laboratory glass, and more.
