7th Dragon 2020

About

7th Dragon 2020 is a post-apocalyptic role-playing game set in a ruined Tokyo overrun by dragons and toxic flora. You play as one of 13 survivors navigating crumbling city districts, battling winged enemies in turn-based combat while scavenging resources and avoiding rival factions. The story follows a familiar formula, humans vs. mythical beasts, but layers it with survival mechanics like managing hunger and gear durability. Exploration is key as you map out derelict landmarks turned into monster lairs. The game’s biggest hook is its shift from fantasy tropes to a gritty urban wasteland, giving its battles and base-building a distinct edge. While its 2011 PSP release date made it easy to miss, it’s gained a small but dedicated following for its straightforward gameplay and atmospheric ruins. Combat can feel repetitive at times but offers satisfying upgrades and team customization. For players looking for a no-frills RPG with a twist of dystopian setting, it carves out a niche worth checking.
