Ramonovo Kouzlo (English: Ramon's Spell) is a Slovakian graphic adventure video game developed by Riki Computer Games and published by Vochozka Trading in 1995 for DOS.
The game was made in 1995 by Slovakian developer Riki Computer Games, by a team led by Richard Pintér. Nevertheless, the game's development took place within the Czech Republic, and it includes subtitles in Czech. [1] The game's graphic processing was different to that of previous games; the style of having digitized picture screens was inspired by some Sierra Entertainment games. [1] The company disbanded three years later and reformed as Mayhem Studios. [1]
The title is a point and click adventure game consisting of a series of static photographs and no animation. The game is set in Nové Město nad Metují, where the evil wizard Ramon settled and enslaved good elves. It is the player's task to free the city from Ramon and save the elves from the curse.
The game received a negative review in Riki magazine. [2]
The title was the first Czech video game with scanned photographs. [3]

The video game industry in the Czech Republic has produced numerous globally successful video games such as Operation Flashpoint: Cold War Crisis and the subsequent ArmA series, the Mafia series, Truck Simulator series, Kingdom Come: Deliverance, the Samorost series and others. There were 300–400 video game developers and around 30 video game companies focusing on video game development in 2014. In 2017 it was 1,100 developers and 47 companies. Video games are also considered by some experts to be the country's biggest cultural export. The video game industry did not enjoy a good reputation and was unsupported by the state until 2013, when the Ministry of Industry and Trade started to seek ways to kickstart the economy. By 2014, programs were planned to support the video game industry. Another problem is a lack of video game development specialization at any university.
