An order that includes a pre-order ships all together, once the last game is ready: if you want the in-stock ones right away, order them separately. Dates are publisher estimates and can change. Until the game ships you can cancel and get everything back, just write to us; after delivery you have the 30-day return window. Full details in the terms and conditions.

DI COSA SI TRATTA

Sette sigilli tra te e il giudizio finale

7th Seal è un gioco di Julio Falagán, illustrato da Will Kirkby, che Devir porta nel catalogo 2026 nel formato LongPack (scatola compatta, componenti verticali). Il tema attinge a mitologie di culture diverse: divinità, bestie e demoni del caos e della distruzione che un Essere Supremo scatena sull'umanità. Il tuo compito è aprire i sette sigilli di un antico pergamino e sopravvivere alla prova.

Al tavolo gestisci dadi: li tiri, li assegni a carte per attaccare, difendere, recuperare vita o attivare abilità. A ogni ondata affronti un Signore e i suoi Sottoposti. Se uccidi i Sottoposti, prendi i loro dadi e un'abilità usa-e-getta. Poi tocca al nemico: il boss attacca, i Sottoposti rimasti attaccano. Se i tuoi dadi vita arrivano a zero, hai perso. Se sopravvivi a quattro ondate e abbatti l'ultimo boss, salvi l'umanità.

Cosa dicono all'estero

Un gioco che promette sfida e tensione crescente, dove ogni dado conta davvero. Vediamo se mantiene al lancio.

In sintesi
Perché ci incuriosisce: Devir punta su un boss battler compatto e tematico, con illustrazioni evocative e una struttura a ondate che promette scalabilità. Difetti ma non deal-breaker: essendo appena uscito, la tenuta sul lungo periodo è tutta da verificare; il dado può frustrare chi cerca controllo totale. Prima lettura, luglio 2026.
🧘
Modalità solitario · Ufficiale ★★★★★

7th Seal è progettato esclusivamente per il solitario. Niente automa da gestire: tu contro un Signore e i suoi Sottoposti, che fanno quello che dicono le loro carte. L'esperienza è completa e pensata per questo formato, senza compromessi multiplayer.

Ask Froggy about the rules
Froggy has read the rulebook: rules, turns, setup. Ask, then dig deeper.
Already answered by Froggy (25)
How do you win?
You must overcome four waves, one for each pair of Seals. You win if you defeat the Lord of the fourth wave, the one with Seal VII and Finis Mundi. Attention: you must still be alive even after resolving the Fury of surviving Subordinates. (End of the game)
How do you lose?
You lose if all the pink life dice run out in the life zone, that is, if the Lord or Subordinates bring your life to zero. You also lose if the Time track die reaches the broken heart space, the sudden defeat. (Defending yourself; Icons of the Time track)
Can you play with multiple people?
No, the rulebook provides for solo play only. There are no rules for 2 players or for teams. (Introduction and setting)
What does a turn look like?
First you roll all available dice. Then, if you want, you modify them with permanent abilities. Finally you assign them to attack, defend yourself, heal or activate single-use abilities. After that it's the enemies' turn: Time advances, the space effects are applied, Subordinates from the indicated areas attack and finally the Lord. (Your turn; The enemies' turn)
How long does a game last?
The manual indicates approximately 70 minutes for the complete game. From the rules you can understand that the waves get longer as you go, because you accumulate dice and abilities. If you have less time, there's the single-wave variant, from about 10 to 30 minutes. (Variant: shorter game)
How long is a single turn?
From the rules you can understand that it's fast: a roll of just a few dice (3 at the beginning), some modifications and assignment. The enemy turn instead is a mechanical resolution of the Time space. It gets a bit longer in advanced waves, when you have more dice and single-use abilities to combine. (Your turn)
Are there points or ties?
No: there is no scoring and there is no tie. Either you defeat the fourth Lord and survive, or you lose. (End of the game)
How much does luck count?
Quite a lot: everything revolves around dice, and Seals, Subordinates and dice from the bag also come out randomly. However, you have several tools to manage it: the black wildcard dice, permanent abilities like ±1, reroll and value swap, and single-use abilities from defeated Subordinates. (Modifying values; Icons of abilities)
Is there interaction?
Not with other players, because you play solo. The clash with enemies, however, is very direct: they attack you every turn, they block or freeze dice, destroy them and add Subordinates. (The enemies' turn; Icons of the Lord's and Fury abilities)
Is it replayable? What changes between one game and another?
For each of the 8 Seals you draw at random one of 3 cards, so the bosses change from game to game. Subordinates also come from shuffled decks with random dice. Plus you choose the Ancestral Location + Hero combination and which permanent abilities to take after each boss. (Preparation; End of a wave)
Are the characters different from each other?
Yes. The Character is made up of an Ancestral Location and a Hero, chosen from double-sided cards. They change the initial colored die, the defense zone and life zone, the ranges of the areas and the starting abilities. For the first game the manual recommends Stonehenge with Gilgamesh. (Preparation 3-6)
What's in the box?
There are 24 Seal cards, 4 initial double-sided cards and 42 Subordinates (12 Comet, 16 Sun, 9 Moon, 5 Star). Then 21 dice: 6 black, 5 pink, 5 cyan and 5 yellow. The box is completed by 5 ability tokens and the Apocalypse bag. (Components)
How much space is needed on the table?
From the setup I estimate about 70×100 cm. You have to fit the row of 8 cards of the Parchment, the boss in the center and your Character with Subordinates on three sides. You also need the 4 decks with their discard piles. (Preparation; Prepare a wave)
Do you need to know English to play?
A little. The cards have only names and icons; all effects are symbols explained in the icon pages of the manual. After a few games you play without consulting anything. (Game icons)
What are the black dice?
They are color wildcards: you can place them on any yellow, pink or cyan requirement, even in the colored spaces of defense. The only exception is the life zone, where black dice cannot be placed. You gain one more for each defeated Lord. (Dice colors; Recovering life)
How do pink life dice work?
They are your life: you start with 2 pink dice on 6, which are never rolled. The damage that overcomes your defense you distribute however you want among them. A die that reaches zero goes back in the bag, and if you lose them all you have lost. (Defending yourself)
How do I heal?
If you defeat a Subordinate that had a pink die, that die becomes yours. After the roll you can place it in an empty space in the life zone. There are also abilities that return a life die to 6. (Recovering life; Icons of abilities)
What is the most convoluted rule?
In my opinion the Fury track. Every attack on a Subordinate removes life, but it also advances its die by one space, regardless of the damage. If it reaches the end before dying, its Fury triggers immediately. So it's better to kill it with a few strong hits, not with many small hits. (Attacking the Lord and Subordinates)
Can I attack any Subordinate?
No: each area of your Character has a range. For example, with range 1 you only hit the closest Subordinate in that area. Those in the Lord's area are always attackable. Subordinates, however, attack you from any distance. (Prepare a wave: Subordinates)
If I kill the boss but Subordinates remain?
The wave ends immediately, but each surviving Subordinate activates its Fury. Immediate ones are applied right away and can even make you lose. Continuous ones become additional abilities of the next boss. (End of a wave)
What do I gain from beating enemies?
From a Subordinate you get its die, usable from the next round, and a single-use ability in the Corpses pile. From a Lord you choose one of two permanent abilities, receive one more ability token and one more black die. (Defeat a Subordinate; End of a wave)
How many times can I use abilities?
Each permanent ability is used once per turn: you mark it with a token, which you remove at the end of the round. Single-use abilities of Subordinates are used only once, then the card goes to the discard. (Modifying values; Recovering life and single-use abilities)
What does the Time track do?
It's the boss's timer: its black die indicates the Lord's life and advances one space every enemy turn. Each space decides which Subordinates attack, adds effects and sets the Lord's damage. Some lead to infinite repetition or sudden defeat. (The enemies' turn)
Can I pause and resume the game?
Yes. After defeating a Lord, before opening the next Seals, take a photo of life dice, abilities, Character, incoming Subordinates, available dice and closed Seals. Then reconstruct everything whenever you want. (Save the game)
What's special about the Irkalla card?
When it appears, place a pink die from the bag on the card with value 4: it acts as a shield for the Lord. Before you can attack it you must reduce that die to zero, using pairs of identical cyan dice that remove 1 point each. (What a card looks like: Underworld and Lord)
Froggy answers by reading the publisher's official rulebook, in the edition we have today. It can make mistakes: when in doubt, the manual in the box always wins. Spotted an error? Hit 👎 and tell us.

How to play

The flow of each turn

A turn lasts two minutes. Roll, choose, suffer, survive.

1
Roll the dice

Roll all the dice you have in your pool. The result determines what you can do this turn.

2
Assign dice to cards

Place dice on your action cards: attack, defense, life recovery, special abilities. Each card requires specific results or combinations.

3
Resolve actions

Perform actions: deal damage to enemies, defend yourself, recover life. If you kill a Minion, take its die and a one-time ability.

4
The enemy attacks

Remaining Minions and the Overlord activate their abilities and hit you. Reduce your life dice. If they reach zero, you lose. Otherwise, you play another turn.

⏱️Your first gameThe chronicle, moment by moment▼

A game in five moments

What happens at the table

Not the rules. The experience.

0′

The first seal opens

You draw the cards of the first Overlord and Minions. You line them up. You roll the dice. You have few options and a lot of life. You think: "Easy." It isn't.

⏱ 0–5 minutes
9′

You attack, but it's not enough

You allocate the dice on the cards: attack, defense, ability. You kill a Minion. You steal its die, you gain a one-time ability. Then it's the boss's turn: it hits hard. Your life dice decrease. You realize you can't ignore the Minions.

💥 The pace picks up
18′

The second seal falls

You defeated the first boss. You gain a permanent ability. You open the second seal. The new Overlord is faster, meaner. The Minions have new abilities. You start counting dice again.

🗺️ New wave
31′

One life remaining

You are on the third wave. You have one life die left. You have to decide: do you attack the boss or kill the Minion that will hit you first? You make a mistake and it's over. You guess right and open the fourth seal.

🎲 The crucial moment
43′

The last Overlord

Fourth wave. The last boss. You have more dice than before, more abilities. But he also has everything. You roll, assign, pray. If you win, you have saved humanity. If you lose, you start over. And you will.

🏁 Game over
🐸Good to know beforehandThree honest things, from friends▼

Good to know beforehand

Three things you need to know

🎲

You can plan all you want, but if you roll badly for two turns in a row, the boss will take you down. Luck matters. If you're looking for total control, this isn't your game.

⏱️

A run lasts 30-45 minutes. You learn the rules in 10. The challenge is not in complexity, but in optimizing under pressure. A gateway solo game, not heavy.

📦

Narrow vertical box, cards and dice. No boards, no miniatures. Compact but complete. If you're looking for deluxe production, look elsewhere.

🏆Victory and defeatWhat the ending rewards▼

How it ends

How to win and how to lose

Two possible outcomes. No middle ground.

🏆

Victory

  • Survive all four waves
  • Defeat the last Overlord
  • Resolve all pending threats without your life dice reaching zero
💀

Defeat

  • Your life dice reach zero at any point in the game
  • An enemy attack eliminates you before you can recover
  • Time runs out (if playing with optional variants)

It's a puzzle that changes every time. Every die is a choice, every turn is a crossroads. And when you lose, you immediately want to play again.

Frequently asked questions

FAQ about 7th Seal

What mechanics does 7th Seal use?

Dice rolling and dice allocation (you assign results to cards to activate actions), variable set-up (bosses and Minions change every game), resource management (life dice and a pool of dice stolen from enemies). It is a solo boss battler with a wave structure.

Is it difficult to learn?

No. The rules are streamlined: you roll dice, assign them to cards, resolve actions, the enemy attacks. You play the first game in 10 minutes. The challenge is tactical, not in the rules.

How long does a complete game last?

A run of the four waves lasts 30-45 minutes. You can also play single waves for 10-15 minute sessions. The game is designed to be quick and replayable.

Is it balanced or does it all depend on the dice?

Dice matter, but so does strategy. You can mitigate bad rolls by stealing dice from Minions, using special abilities, carefully choosing what to attack first. High luck, but not blind.

Is it available in Italian?

This is the English edition. The game will be published by Devir in a multilingual version (Spanish, Catalan, English, Portuguese, Italian according to official sources), with texts on the cards and rules in all included languages.
