Read the full game description

In 7 Steps, everything revolves around the number seven, with seven fields in seven colors, and seven discs available to each player each round that can block any number — and by blocking columns on the fields rise higher step by step up to a maximum height of seven discs. Newly placed discs score points for the placer depending on the level where the disc was placed in the column. Only the one who can place his discs cleverly and use the special tiles well will win this game. Online Play Yucata (turn-based)
