"Seven Games of the Soul is definitely not a game for everyone. But for those of us who enjoy a good, solid adventure of the more morbid variety, Seven Games of the Soul is definitely not a bad choice at all." Score 83 of 100
Adventure Gamers Review
adventuregamers.com
"The real beauty and beast of Seven Games of the Soul is that it's so intrinsically multi-layered. There is mystery within mystery, puzzle within puzzle, and subplot within plot, and progression on one level will either tease and tantalize with hints at the larger picture, or frustrate and confuse from the lack of cohesion." 4 of 5 stars.
