About the game

What is Avoid Extinction

Humanity stands on the edge of extinction. In Avoid Extinction, players must balance survival, morality, and ruthless strategy to outlast a world overrun by monsters.

You are one of the last remaining Keyholders, struggling to endure in a collapsing town. Every choice carries weight: will you sacrifice others to survive, risk everything to protect yourself, or strike out to steal gear and imprison rivals?

Each turn, Keyholders move across the board, exploring buildings that may conceal vital resources—or deadly creatures. Victories in battle reward you with strength and precious Keys, while defeat sends you to the hospital to recover. Collect 10 Keys and you can attempt to unlock the only escape route.

The first Keyholder to break free wins. But in a world where trust is fragile and danger lurks in every corner; survival is never guaranteed.
