* If you haven't accidentally killed your entire squad in ''VideoGame/{{Helldivers}}'' or ''VideoGame/{{Helldivers II}}'', you simply haven't played long enough.

* Some fusion spells in ''VideoGame/{{Persona 2}}'' instantaneously kill any enemy that can't void a specific element. There are spells for Earth, Fire, Water and Wind. Another [[GuideDangIt ridiculously specific]] Fusion Spell not only kills every enemy, but also kills two of your party members as well.

* ''VideoGame/Persona5'' has a status ailment called Despair, which renders a character immobile, drains their SP per turn, then kills them on the third turn. If you're unlucky enough to have all four active members of the party inflicted with Despair, you can only stand and watch as they succumb one by one. Your MissionControl only has the option to learn how to cleanse debuffs in the UpdatedRerelease's VeryDefinitelyFinalDungeon, and by random chance at that, meaning you have to be even more lucky to survive a completely Despaired party.

* ''VideoGame/HeavyWeapon'''s UpdatedRerelease for the UsefulNotes/XBox360 has the [[CoOpMultiplayer War Party]] [[EndlessGame Survival]] mode, in which players have infinite lives, but get a respawn timer that gets longer for each time they die. The game only ends once all player tanks are dead and have yet to respawn. This trope comes into play once the [[DemonicSpiders Havanski Atomic Bomber]] appears--it drops A-bombs that will destroy ''every player on the screen [[OneHitKill regardless of shielding]]'' should one of them even ''touch'' the ground before being destroyed.

Compare RedshirtArmy. See also the EverybodyDiesEnding. For incredibly stupid ways you can do this to ''yourself'' in in video games, see YetAnotherStupidDeath. GameOver is a supertrope to this one.

* ''Blog/ThingsMrWelchIsNoLongerAllowedToDoInAnRPG'' gives a guide on what's an appropriate TPK:
-->1430. If the party goes out like ''Film/ThreeHundred'', that's cool. ''Film/ThelmaAndLouise'' not so much.

* ''Webcomic/{{Housepets}}'': ''Heckraiser'''s climactic finale ends with [[spoiler: everybody in Tarot and Keene's team being killed by Eudoant's EyeBeams. Between pouring focus on protecting Craig and Draig and Marion distracting him, they survive long enough to reincarnate Pete and Dragon just before kicking it. As it turns out, DeathIsCheap in Dragon's temple, and all who died reincarnated outside.]]

Already had an entry under Literature.


* In ''Literature/TheWanderingInn'', several teams of adventurers band together to explore a newly discovered dungeon. [[spoiler:They unleash such a horde of undead that it annihilates the adventurers and then invades the nearby city.]]

** This happens ''twice'' to Kabru's party, first after being paralyzed by treasure bugs (venomous insects that resemble coins and jewels), and secondly after being killed by a pack of mermen, showing their utter inexperience fighting monsters versus Laios' party. They're ready to give up after that, since they used up most of their money paying the people that revive them.
