Seven Sages is a retro-style puzzler where the player must decipher coded messages and solve riddles in order to reveal the narrative of the game. You play a historian who has just inherited a strange collection of sealed books from his dead grandfather. With only a small library of books, a desk to write notes, and your own brain, you must find a way to unlock your grandfather's sealed books and uncover their secrets.

The game also features short stories from various independent writers. Be sure to check them out!

Q. Will my computer run this game?
A. All but the oldest or cheapest PCs should be able to run it, as long as your graphics card and driver support OpenGL 3.0 (most do nowadays).
