, also known as Seven Mansions, is a survival horror video game developed and published by Koei for the Sega Dreamcast. It was released on January 20, 2000, in Japan. The game is a sequel to the 1996 Sony PlayStation and Sega Saturn game Nanatsu no Hikan.
Gameplay The player can control one of two characters: Kei and Reina. The game can be played in either first person, third person, or at a fixed camera angle. Kei's levels are more action based, while Reina's are more adventure-based.
The title was the first survival horror game to feature a real-time cooperative mode; players control two characters independently and simultaneously. This mode has different objectives, monsters and events from the single-player mode.
Plot
Friends Kei and Reina land on a mysterious island and search for their friend Ernest. Along the way, they encounter monsters in the different mansions they discover. It's up to them to defeat these foes, find their friend, and understand the mysteries of the island.
