# How to Login and Access the Game Panel

> Learn how to securely log in to the FREAKHOSTING Game Panel to manage your game servers, monitor performance, and configure settings.

## Accessing Your Game Panel

The FREAKHOSTING Game Panel at **games.freakhosting.com** is your dedicated management hub for every game server on your account. Built on the powerful Pterodactyl platform, it gives you complete control over your servers — power management, file access, console, backups, scheduling, and more — all from a single browser tab.

Whether you are running a Minecraft survival world, a TeamSpeak voice server, or a modded ARK cluster, this is where you manage it all.

## Signing In to the Game Panel

Follow these steps to get from the login page to your server list.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the Game Panel">
    Launch your preferred web browser and navigate to the [Game Panel](https://games.freakhosting.com). You will land on a clean login screen with fields for your email address and password, along with the FREAKHOSTING logo at the top.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enter Your Credentials">
    Type the **email address** and **password** associated with your FREAKHOSTING game server account. These are the same credentials you received when your game server service was first activated.

    <Tip>
      If you manage multiple FREAKHOSTING services, double-check that you are using the email tied to your **game server order** specifically — it may differ from a VPS, web hosting, or billing panel account.
    </Tip>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Click Login">
    Hit the **Login** button to authenticate. If your credentials are correct, you will be taken directly to your server list.

    <Info>
      The Game Panel does not currently support two-factor authentication through the panel itself. Keep your password strong and unique to protect your account.
    </Info>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Arrive at Your Server List">
    Once authenticated, you land on the **Server List** page. You will see all game servers associated with your account listed out, along with a **server selector dropdown** at the top of the page that lets you quickly jump between servers. The top-right corner features a **Discord** link and your **Account** link with an avatar icon.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## What You Will See After Logging In

The moment you are in, the Game Panel gives you an instant overview of all your game servers. Here is what each part of the interface tells you at a glance:

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Server Selector Dropdown" icon="chevron-down">
    Located in the top navigation bar, this dropdown shows the currently selected server (for example, "Server Ts test"). Click it to switch between your servers instantly without returning to the main list. If you only have one server, it will already be selected for you.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Top Navigation Bar" icon="bars">
    The navigation bar runs across the top of every page and features the **FREAKHOSTING** logo on the left, the server selector dropdown in the center area, and two key links on the right — a **Discord** icon that takes you to the FREAKHOSTING community server and your **Account** link with your avatar.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Server List" icon="server">
    All your game servers are displayed on the main page after login. Each server entry shows its name, current status, IP address and port, and resource allocation. Click on any server to open its full dashboard with console, files, settings, and power controls.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Account Settings" icon="user">
    Click the **Account** link (with your avatar) in the top-right corner to access your profile settings, change your password, or manage your account details. This is separate from the billing panel account page.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

<Tip>
  The **Discord** link in the top-right corner of the panel takes you straight to the FREAKHOSTING community server. It is a great place to get quick tips from other users, ask questions, and stay updated on announcements. Bookmark it if you have not joined already.
</Tip>

## Navigating Between Servers

If you manage more than one game server, the **server selector dropdown** in the top navigation bar is the fastest way to switch between them. Instead of navigating back to the main server list, simply click the dropdown, select the server you want, and you are taken directly to that server's dashboard.

The dropdown displays the server name you have set for each server, making it easy to identify which is which — especially if you run different game types or environments on separate servers.

***

## Your First Look: A Practical Example

Here is what a typical first login experience looks like:

1. **The top bar** — The FREAKHOSTING logo sits on the left, your server selector dropdown is in the center, and the Discord and Account links are on the right.
2. **The server list** — Below the top bar, you see your game servers listed out. Each one shows its name, the game it is running, its IP address and port, and its current status.
3. **Click any server** — Clicking a server opens the full dashboard where you will find the console, file manager, backups, schedules, and power controls. This is where all the real management happens.

That is it — you are ready to manage your game server.

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Forgot your password?">
    Click the **Forgot Password?** link on the login page at [games.freakhosting.com](https://games.freakhosting.com). Enter your registered email address, and you will receive a password reset link. Follow the instructions in the email to set a new password and log back in.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="First time logging in?">
    Your login credentials were emailed to you when your game server service was first activated. Check your inbox for a welcome email from FREAKHOSTING — it contains your email and password for the Game Panel. Be sure to check your spam or junk folder if you cannot find it.

    Once you are in, we strongly recommend changing your password right away from the **Account** page accessible via the avatar link in the top-right corner.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Cannot receive the reset email?">
    If password reset emails are not arriving, check your spam or junk folder first. Some email providers may also filter automated emails into a "Promotions" or "Updates" tab. If the issue persists after checking all folders, contact our support team for manual account verification and a password reset.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can I use the panel on my phone?">
    Yes. The Game Panel is fully responsive and works in any modern mobile browser. The layout adjusts to fit smaller screens, so you can check server status, view the console, and even restart your server on the go. For the best experience with file management or console interaction, a desktop or tablet is recommended.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="My credentials from the billing panel are not working?">
    The Game Panel at **games.freakhosting.com** uses separate credentials from the billing panel at **freakhosting.com/clientarea**. Your game panel password was set when the service was provisioned. If you have never logged into the Game Panel before, check your welcome email for the correct credentials, or use the **Forgot Password?** link to reset it.
