Been playing Ruya for a couple months now. It’s basically a game where you match cute little characters to progress through surreal, dreamlike landscapes. Pretty solid if you’re into calming, minimal puzzle games.
There’s 64 handcrafted levels to complete – you just swipe, slide, and pop the characters to clear each one. And it’s got a really heartwarming visual style, with you decorating the main character Ruya in flowers as you play. And shaking off the flowers at the end of each level is a nice little satisfying touch.
Look, if you’re into relaxing, introspective games that’ll make you smile, you’ll probably like Ruya. It’s not perfect – the soundtrack can get a bit repetitive after a while – but overall it does the job of pulling you into a peaceful, dream-like state. Worth checking out.
