About this game

The 7th Citadel casts you as a slave-gardener who just broke free from a cruel Necrodruid's fortress, only to land in a much bigger mess: a collapsing world that needs saving. You explore freely, revealing the map tile by tile through numbered terrain and event cards, talking to strangers, scavenging what you can, and slowly rebuilding a city that might just signal the world's renewal. From the creators of The 7th Continent, it borrows that same open, story-driven exploration feel but wraps it in a fresh post-apocalyptic fantasy setting. Every choice nudges your path toward one of several possible endings, and the campaign runs long, so this is a game you commit to over many sessions, not one you finish in an evening.
