About Seven - Deadly Revelation

Seven - Deadly Revelation is the first of the Seven chat thrillers by Reality Games, a German studio whose apps are published under SponsorAds GmbH & Co. KG. It came to the App Store in 2019 and has more than a million downloads on Google Play, where it has over 200,000 reviews. Its sequel is Seven: Endgame.

The whole game happens on a phone screen that looks like a messenger app. It starts with a message from an unknown user: on the seventh day thou wilt kill, followed by a photo and the line because each man kills what he loves. Your chat list holds friends, your dad and Mona, an ex who will not let go. Someone among or around them knows far too much, and as the days pass the threats to the people you care about grow.

You play by choosing your replies. Each answer moves your relationship with a character up or down, and the makers say your choices decide how the story goes, how it ends and who survives. Between conversations you hack into images, videos and files in a server mini-game and solve riddles with maps and runes to dig up clues. Optional purchases speed the story up.

It suits players who like Simulacra or text stories like Disharmony and want a slow-building stalker thriller on their own phone rather than monsters and jumpscares.
