General: Seven: A Gritty Post-Apocalyptic Story-Driven RPG Posted: 23 Apr 2016 01:19 AM PDT At PAX East I got a look at Seven: The Days Long Gone, a new, story-driven, isometric RPG by IMGN.PRO and Fool's Theory. In Seven you play Teriel, a young man whose skillset lends itself to thievery and sneakery. Teriel soon runs afoul of a bunch of cultists who subject him to a strange ritual, which causes the demon Artanak to be imprisoned within him. Artanak sends Teriel to Peh in the Vetrell Empire seeking... something. Given that it's a demon looking for it, it can't be good. |
