CRYMELIGHT is available on PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch 2, with FURYU launching its latest action roguelike on consoles while the PC version remains pending. The publisher’s November 4 Western announcement lists the standard edition at $19.99 and the digital Deluxe Edition at $39.99. Its Japanese release date is November 5, rather than a separate second launch.

Steam is a different case: the PC product page still says “Coming soon” and offers a demo. Neither that listing nor the launch announcement supplies a firm date for the full PC edition. Planned Steam collaboration bundles should therefore be distinguished from the console game already on sale.

A run has two kinds of progress

The setting is Wonderland, reimagined as a prison for dead souls. Alice has lost her memories, receives her name from the White Rabbit and enters a game whose apparent route to freedom is defeating the Queen. Mary, another amnesiac girl, becomes her companion. Alice’s encounters with other characters’ sins reveal fragments of their lives, connecting the combat loop to the mystery of why they are there.

The official systems guide describes a choice of three skill cards after each cleared stage. Players keep a hand of up to five cards, with poker-style combinations changing the strength and effects of their build. Those cards disappear after a failed attempt. The immediate decision is consequently about what can work together during the current run, rather than simply collecting every available ability.

Defeated enemies also expand the Wonder Dimension, which increases Alice’s power and the speed of combat. Card choices influence how that space grows and what benefits it supplies. Separately, sins gathered in battle can be confessed and converted into materials for weapons and accessories. Those upgrades preserve some progress even when a run’s cards are lost.

Between attempts, tea-party conversations provide further character information, and exchanges can change when time rewinds. The game also offers a close side view or a wider overhead perspective, with an option to hide interface information. These are presentation choices within the same game, rather than separate story routes.

What the editions include

The Deluxe package adds six DLC items spanning weapons, supplies and accessories, an 80-page artbook and a 30-track soundtrack. The Steam listing also details three Japanese voice-drama tracks, one of which is explicitly marked as containing story spoilers. English text and subtitles are supported, while the voice acting is Japanese.

FURYU’s launch promotion includes free accessories connected to Garden of Witches and Magical Princess. Those are distinct from the six-item paid Deluxe set. The developer credits identify Naoki Hisaya for plot and story supervision, Sakuzyo for music and YOGISYA for character design, giving the project a clear creative lineage alongside its card-driven combat systems.
