About the game

What is The 7th Citadel?

The 7th Citadel is an all-new cooperative exploration and adventure game from the creators of The 7th Continent. In this post-apocalyptic medieval fantasy world, you play as a “slave-gardener” who escapes from the Citadel of Necrodruid Ninidazir’, only to find yourself confronted by an even greater Threat! Explore the Collapsing Lands freely by gradually unveiling the board using numbered terrain and event cards. Interact with your environment, converse with its inhabitants, and build a city that will signal the renewal of this desolate world.... As the scenarios unfold, your choices, for better or worse, will lead you inexorably to the epic finale against the Threat!
