Factory Panic, known in Japan as Ganbare Gorby! (がんばれゴルビー！) and in Brazil as Crazy Company, is a Sega Game Gear puzzle game developed by Japan System House and published by Sega. Featuring the name and likeness of then-President of the Soviet Union Mikhail Gorbachev, it was first released in Japan in June 1991, and was later brought to Europe, Brazil, and South Korea.

Despite being released only two months after the similarly-themed Nintendo Family Computer title Gorby no Pipeline Daisakusen, the games are unrelated.

Gameplay

On the floor is a button that, when you stand on it, will open the gate on the conveyor belt, allowing the goods to go to the people waiting for them.
