An isometric post-apocalyptic RPG that came to existence as a result of cooperation between two Polish developers: IMGN.PRO (known for the survival horror Kholat) and Fool’s Theory, founded by two ex-CD Projekt RED employees and co-creators of the last two installments in The Witcher series. The game is set in an original universe called the Empire of Vethrall, which stands on the brink of destruction as a result of mankind’s prideful attempt to punish God for the suffering of mortals. The main hero resembles the protagonist of the Thief series – he is a lone wayfarer, and an expert thief. The characteristic feature of Seven is its vast, open world, full of brutality and moral ambivalence. As you play, you can freely explore the game area thanks to the hero’s parkour skills. High quality graphics is powered by the Unreal Engine 4.
