Inspired by adventures

We've been making games since 1997 and have a particular love of retro adventure games. We develop games in-house and try and help publish others. We also work on audio and music, so let us know if you need a soundtrack. We've worked with a lot of talented people and hope to continue to bring their excellent creations to your desktop...

History of Screen 7

Back in the 90's when we were kids some of the most popular games of the era included point and click adventure games. Of course, we loved all kinds of games and it wasn't long before 3D really took over and became mainstream. Inspired by the games industry a bunch of friends designed simple game projects as a hobby.

Staying creative and objective

Screen 7 isn't all about "old school point & click adventures". We hold events, make music, sometimes videos and films - and are constantly looking for new challenges and ways to be a better business. We're always looking to help others and have a number of schemes to accomplish this.

Digital distribution

We sell DRM free games from our website and promotional game websites. If you have a game in production, we can help you get it finished, distribute it over the internet, reach lots of potential buyers and give you a fair percentage on profits (up to 80%). Interested? Contact us right away!

What about hard copies?

We can produce single or multi-disc sets, Screen 7 or you can supply the artwork and disc contents and our payment processor handles the rest. DVD's can be shipped worldwide for free, but there is a minimum price. We can also help with manuals/documentation. We grade our games as follows:

PREMIER GAMES
  Voice pack, characters should be fully voiced
  Translations where possible, it should offer multiple languages
  Quality graphics, strong atmosphere, sounds & music
  Gameplay exceeding 5 hours

BUDGET GAMES
  Strong writing, developed characters
  Good atmosphere with sound effects & music
  Gameplay roughly 1-5 hours

  Problems with the Windows shortcut

If your system cannot find the files associated with the game please check the folder where you installed it and make sure nothing was accidentally deleted. You can always run the setup again and install a fresh version of the game. Please contact us if you have further problems.

  Problem initializing graphics mode

If you have an error "This graphics mode is not supported" then you'll need to adjust the screen settings for the game. Go to "game configuration" from your Start menu or find the folder with the game files and run "winsetup.exe". From there, lower or raise the "graphics filter" and click "Save and run" to try again. Note: Not all our games allow this adjustment.

  Sound or music not playing

Firstly check that your speakers are plugged in and working with other sound & music. Using the "game configuration" or by running "winsetup.exe" from your game files folder, you can also adjust the primary source for playing back sound and music. Check your speakers are not muted.

  Download not working

If the download does not complete or you have similar problems, please get in touch with us. We make sure all our game files are virus free and in a complete form to download. Should this not be the case, or the download simply will not complete, do let us know as soon as possible.

  Game crashes

If you were playing and the game chucked you out, we're sorry! If you saw an error message before or after the game crash, please make a note of it and get in touch with us right away. We do everything possible before releasing a game to be sure it won't crash and will do everything we can to get it fixed quickly should this happen. Tell us about it!

  Hints and tips

Perhaps you're stuck in one of the games, need a hint or some tips to keep you progressing? Feel free to get in touch and we'll try and provide you with some pointers!

Please remember to tell us which game you're playing, your transaction ID if applicable and any error messages you may encounter when you get in touch! We aim to respond within 24 hours. Also get in touch if you have payment problems or questions.

Note: Most of our games require DirectX 9.0 to play. You may need to download & install it.

The demo is just around the corner, and will be available from Saturday 15th September 2012.

Now Playing

Our spring time videos include an 8 minute video by Jack Hennigan documenting some of the exhibitors at AdventureX in 2012, and footage of Chris Bateman's talk about Discworld Noir in 2011.

The Cat Lady has just featured in a review in national newspaper The Independent, so thank you if you are visiting the site because of that, or any of the other kind reviews and press people have given the game in recent weeks and months. It's really been and still is a roller-coaster behind the scenes for that game, with translations, albums and some epic deals in the works.

Thanks to everyone for their big Cat Lady support!!

We are preparing for another AdventureX event this year, but it won't be until summer until we really get on top of that. In the meantime, in-house development of Ravenwood and KI continue, as does Captain Disaster. It's almost time (but not quite) to announce even more adventure games, so do check back here in the near future!
