7 Souls

About this board game

7 Souls is a beautifully creepy game for 1–6 players, with sessions lasting around 40 minutes, in which players become gods competing for control over their human supporters.

Guide cultists, acolytes, betrayers, prophets, and other followers as you seek to gather support, power, and souls to satisfy your hunger and desire. Each god must compete with their sanity while trying to outdo rival players and corrupt the investigators.

Actions are selected simultaneously, creating a time-sensitive contest in which every decision can affect your plans. The game supports several strategic directions, so players can pursue different routes toward victory rather than relying on a single approach.

• Callings: Secret objectives that help shape each player’s strategy.
• Blessings: Awards that provide additional goals and incentives.
• Sacrificial altars: A thematic feature that supports the struggle for power and souls.
• Simultaneous action selection: A fast-paced system that keeps the competition moving.

Players will cheer and curse as they manipulate their supporters, pursue their hidden aims, and challenge one another’s control. The combination of secret objectives, awards, competing gods, and investigators gives each session a tense, unpredictable feel.

Whether played with a single player or a full group of six, 7 Souls delivers a compact contest of corruption and ambition. Its multiple paths to victory invite players to focus their strategies while embracing the unsettling struggle for souls.
