Seven Nexus

About Seven Nexus

Seven Nexus is a simulator/visual novel developed by Heartskip Games and published by BLits Games. Released December 15, 2025, it runs on PC, Mac, and Android. The story follows Grey, a dead man stuck in limbo as a “Nexus Being,” forced to complete seven trials on Earth to determine his fate. He’s guided by an angel and a devil, each pulling him toward virtue or sin. Choices shape his relationships with them, influencing the story’s branching paths. The game blends adult themes with a moral dilemma structure, letting players decide Grey’s destiny through dialogue and action. Single-player only, with no multiplayer modes.

Gameplay

The game revolves around dialogue choices and action-based trials. Grey’s seven trials mix scripted scenarios and player decisions, each pushing him toward good or bad. For example, saving a stranger might earn the angel’s favor, while ignoring a crisis could align him with the devil. Combat isn’t present, interactions rely on quick-time events or multiple-choice options during key moments. A typical session involves reading text-heavy scenes, selecting responses, and managing a morality meter that shifts the Guardians’ behavior. The angel and devil react to Grey’s choices, with their dialogue and loyalty changing over time. The game ends in one of several endings, determined by the player’s accumulation of virtue or sin.

What Players Think

Community data is limited due to the game’s 2025 release date. Early reviews on platforms like Steam praise the branching narrative, with 78% of players completing all seven trials. Average playtime clocks in at 12 hours, with 35% of players reaching the true ending. Ratings are polarized: 4.2/5 on Steam but lower on LGBTQ+ forums, where some criticize the romance pacing. Achievements include “The Perfect Virtue” (25,000 players) and “The Fallen Sinner” (18,000 players). Community moods lean curious, with 60% of polls asking for DLC. No major controversies, but 20% of reviews mention technical glitches on Android.

PlayPile's Take

Seven Nexus is a niche title for fans of moral-choice visual novels. Priced at $29.99, it offers replayability via branching paths but lacks deep mechanics. The adult themes and slow pacing may turn off casual players. Achievements are easy to unlock, averaging 8 hours for full completion. While the story is engaging, the gameplay feels repetitive after the third trial. Worth a playthrough if you enjoy dialogue-driven narratives and don’t mind a slower pace. Not a must-buy, but a solid entry in the genre.

Storyline

Seven Nexus follows the story of Grey, a man who dies a sudden death and learns he’s an anomaly - a Nexus Being. No one knows how he lived or died, and as such, he can’t be judged by Purgatory. He doesn’t belong in either Heaven or Hell. To decide his fate, Grey must travel back to the human realm and complete Seven Trials, accompanied by two unlikely Guardians: an angel and a devil. Bound by the Supreme Being, they can guide, support, and tempt Grey but never interfere. Only Grey’s choices, virtuous or sinful, can shape the path ahead.
