About Rumu

Rumu is an intimate, narrative-driven single player adventure game where you play as a robot vacuum cleaner on it's journey in becoming a Sentient machine while under watchful eye of the house AI, Sabrina

You are RUMU - a robot designed to clean, and to love.

You awake in a fully automated Smart Home created by your eccentric Human's David and Cecily where you discover your only companions are Sabrina, the house AI, the always watching guide, and the home’s dysfunctional cast of semi-intelligent devices, as well as Ada the cat.

After curiosity draws you away from your standard home maintenance duties, you’ll be faced with challenging moral dilemmas forcing you beyond your programming to uncover the the dark secrets kept from you by Sabrina.
  • A heart wrenching narrative that takes you from basic robot vacuum cleaning duties to discovering the truth
  • Performances from Allegra Clark (Dragon Age), Larissa Gallagher (Firewatch), Grant George (Fire Emblem Echoes)
  • An engrossing original score by Matt Mclean (Orwell)
  • A Smart Home littered with semi-intelligent devices to befriend
  • Point and click puzzles to lead Rumu down forgotten paths
  • A cozy isometric like dollhouse environment
  • Fully Subtitled in English

Robot House is a small Sydney-based team of developers.

We set out to carve our own path in games and give players experiences they aren't expecting. From the ridiculous to the remarkable, quality and heart are the core of what we build.

Rumu is our debut feature length title, and we're thrilled to bring it to likeminded players who have a thirst for intimate, narrative-driven experiences.

Do not buy this game, the devs aren't supporting it and it has a game breaking bug where shortly after launch the screen goes completely black and the cursor starts ghosting, rending the game completely unplayable. Simply a waste of money, which is a shame, because the game was fun when it worked.

Interesting story told through a fun and short game about an automatic vacuum cleaner. Do your cleaning chores and explore a modern looking house as a little vacuum robot, while you figure out the truth about what whappened in this house. It's a very casual and relaxing game, with some simple but good visuals and puzzles.

Complete waste of $10 because of false representation/marketing. Contrary to the advertised ... it has "Controller Support" ... it does not!!! I tried for almost 30 minutes, NOTHING I did allowed controller support. There is NOTHING in the game menu that allows controller support. Going into Steam for controller support was futile. For a supposedly chill, relaxed game ... I can't imagine having to play this with M/K ... no sitting back for a casual relaxed play. There's no support on their website page, just a physical address and an email, nothing else on the page. This a half baked low quality money grab. My refund request to Steam was denied!
