7th Sea is an out-of-print collectible card game first designed by Dan Verssen and published by Alderac Entertainment Group from 1999 to 2002. Its theme is swashbuckling nautical adventure in the style of classic stories such as Treasure Island, and it is set in the world of Theah, the same setting used by the 7th Sea tabletop role-playing game from the same publisher. Reviewers noted the game had several distinctive design features, including multiple different paths to victory and a combat system built specifically around swordfighting and swashbuckling duels rather than the generic combat systems common to other collectible card games of its era.
