RUH
by Plazma
About the Game
A visual novel with story from real life.
Short description: You died on death row, condemned by the cold arithmetic of the parish court’s computational machine. An innocent verdict erased by a mechanical error. In RUH you read the case as it unfolds, then sit in judgment. Was it a ghost, a prank, or nothing anyone can prove? You make the ruling, and the game reveals what the real court decided in 1875, so you can see whether you agree with history.
Made with: Godot 4

Theme
I have no clue what is going on
There is a ghost in a machine, although it seems like the could just be taken out of the game and nothing would change.
It's such a cool game concept, but the ghost in the machine part just doesn't come across well in the gameplay. It feels tacked on
there was a ghost in the story but not really what i would think when the theme is ghost in a mashine
The ghost is in the machine.
nothing other than the text indicates that i'm a ghost
Enjoyment
Felt a bit lackluster in terms of gameplay
Too much reading and im tired
it felt just okay did feel like there was anything special.
only one court case? i want more!
It was interesting game and i can see the potentsial but there was a lot of reading.
The game is well made and interesting but it is too short.
Not much you can do mainly just reading.
Aesthetics
Story is interesting and art is gorgeous
there are pretty good sounds and music going on.
Use of heritage is great.
It looks lovely
Illustration fitted the game and were a bit greepy and interesting at the same time. On the other hand, the font was a bit hard to read
The art is consistent and I like the style.
Felt very polished. Nice job.
Innovation
Cool concept
very unique
It was very interesting that this was actual case from the past
I have seen games like this but it has a interesting twist.
Bonus
Yea it was pretty cool. One case is kinda short tho.
i assume these (this?) court case is based on real history, very cool historical value
Amazing art
it was an interesting game
I really liked the visual side of the game and it looked clean.
I would like to play it again, when new stories come out
