Seven: The Days Long Gone is an open-world, isometric role-playing game, in which you play as Teriel, a master thief sent on a mission that will shake the foundations of the Vetrall Empire. Free roam across the vibrant prison island of Peh, and choose whether to help or exploit its many citizens.
If there’s one place that Master Thief Teriel avoids at all costs, it’s the prison island of Peh. But when a daring heist takes an unexpected turn, Teriel finds himself shackled on an airship bound for the infamous island. To make matters worse, the daemon inside his head makes it very clear that the thief will never leave unless he does exactly what he’s told.
In Seven: The Days Long Gone you play as Teriel. You must use all of your cunning and clandestine skills to escape a web of deceit and betrayal, and ultimately survive Peh.
Seven combines parkour, stealth, and larceny with an intriguing setting to create an incredibly enjoyable isometric RPG experience that's slightly dampened by perpetual glitches.
Seven: The Days Long Gone does a few things very well, but none of them involve the mechanics or gameplay at all.
Overall the game is very polished, although the many mechanics can be a detriment as they make the game feel convoluted. Most mechanics need to be experimented with in order to be able to learn how to use them efficiently, meaning a lot of time needs to be invested in Seven. The story is interesting enough to lead the player however the characters themselves...
If you imagine Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura but transported to a futuristic setting by way of Assassin's Creed and you will have some idea of what this is all about. Isometric RPG fun with a touch of Parkour like motion and a twist of the occult.
In an RPG landscape dominated by third-person political thrillers, it’s a relief to sit down and play a game that takes us back to the golden age of video games. Seven: The Days Long Gone certainly holds that charm and appeal, thanks to its wonderful aesthetic. Unfortunately, its poor design consistency and frustrating mechanics make it unrecommendable...
