Helpdesk Panic — Run the IT team

helpdeskpanic.com Observed source
Editorial interest 82/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A cooperative hybrid game turns real IT support pressure into tickets, incidents, priorities, dependencies, and team decisions.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-16 issue.

Field notes

The page models IT support as a shared queue rather than a series of isolated puzzles: incidents carry priorities, affected users, business impact, and team-load consequences, while players choose which problem to investigate first. Its visible sample includes 17 open tickets and a 62% team-load reading, alongside payroll failures, rising WiFi complaints, and a meeting-room display outage. The project says its physical game, digital engine, and professional use cases remain under development.
