About the Game

About This Game

PLANK is a fast-paced co-op survival builder where you and your friends race across a collapsing canyon by placing planks, kicking down trees, and making extremely questionable decisions under pressure.

Work together to bridge impossible gaps, grab treasure chests for upgrades, and fight off rock monsters trying to knock you into the abyss. But don’t stop moving  lava is rising, the ground is falling apart, and a massive wall of death is closing in behind you.

Build smart. Move fast. Pray your planks hold.

BUILD OR FALL

Place planks in real time to cross gaps, climb terrain, and survive the canyon. Every plank matters. Bad placement means broken boards, wasted time, and teammates screaming as they fall into lava.

There’s no blueprint. Just instincts, panic, and wood.

CHOP TREES. STEAL WOOD. PANIC MORE.

Kick down trees, steal planks from the environment, and scramble for resources while the world collapses around you. You’ll never have enough wood and that’s the point.

Fight your friends over planks. Or sacrifice them. Your call.

OUTRUN THE DEATH WALL

You can’t stop it.
You can’t slow it down.
You can only run.

A massive wall of death relentlessly pushes the team forward, forcing constant movement and split second decisions. Stop to argue and it’s over.

FIGHT THE CANYON

The canyon fights back.

Rock monsters punch planks out from under you. Environmental hazards collapse paths mid run. Lava rises, platforms crumble, and enemies exist purely to ruin your plans.

Sometimes the canyon wins.

UPGRADES & TREASURE

Find treasure chests hidden along the route to unlock upgrades, abilities, and new ways to barely survive. Better planks. Faster building. Riskier choices.

Do you detour for loot  or keep running?

CO-OP CHAOS

Play solo or with friends in chaotic co-op where teamwork is optional but betrayal is inevitable. Coordinate plank placement, call out dangers, and scream at whoever placed that one plank sideways.

Mistakes are shared. Blame is personal.
