As the sole survivor in Annihilated, your choices shape a dark journey through deckbuilder roguelite gameplay. Developed by デス組合, this unique mix of anime visual novel and survival challenges awaits on Steam.
About this game
The Hero's party has been annihilated.
You can only save ONE, but they are all BROKEN:
The Hero who lost the power of speech.
The Mage who lost the gift of magic.
The Warrior who lost a mighty body.
… and the Priest who lost ****.
Lovable & Broken Characters
A narrative-driven, story-rich RPG with 4 distinct character routes. Find your favorite "broken" one to save…and leave the others behind.
Dark & Cute Art
Adorable art fuses with dark horror effects. The cuter the graphics, the deeper the madness.
Timing-Based Card Battles
Timing is key. Manage limited resources and push the button at the perfect moment to survive.
Story
You are the last survivor of the rescue party sent after the legendary Hero's party, lost deep inside a cursed dungeon. When you finally reach them, they're broken — ravaged by the dungeon's curse, each missing something: their mind, their body, or… something best left unsaid. You can't save them all. You can save only ONE.

Notice of Release Postponement for Annihilated
Release Postponement for AnnihilatedThis is Flashlight Games, publisher of Annihilated.We regret to inform you that Annihilated, previously scheduled for release on July 22, 2026, has been delayed to Q4 2026 (October–December) in order to further improve the quality of the game.Development is in its final stages, and the team has been polishing the game toward the July 22 release. However, we have made the decision to take additional time for final adjustments — refining the overall game feel and fine-tuning the battle balance for a smoother experience — so that we can deliver the game at the level of quality it deserves.We sincerely apologize to everyone who has been looking forward to the game.During this final phase, we plan to release an updated demo and once again invite feedback from players.In return for the wait, the entire team is committed to making Annihilated a game that lives up to your expectations at launch.Thank you for your understanding and continued support.We are also sharing a message from the development team regarding this delay. Please see the attached image. A Message from the Development Team, Death KumiaiTo everyone waiting for AnnihilatedWe know some of you have been saying, "It's out this month — can't wait!" — which makes this announcement all the more painful to write.Here's the honest truth: the game has already passed Steam's review process, and we absolutely could finish bug-checking and ship the game by July 22.But that launch would have looked something like:"*gasp* *wheeze* BUGS FIXED!!! OKAY, SHIP IT NOW!!!!"…and that's not the launch this game deserves.What we couldn't fit in was the time after completion for the whole team to play the game over and over and fine-tune all the little details of the balance. That's the time we're asking for.The delay window may look wide, but that's only because we'd rather promise carefully and deliver early — we're doing everything we can to get it to you as soon as possible. Please don't worry...Read full article on Community Announcements (M0)AnnouncementsOfficial
