In the sprawling world of indie visual novels and choice-driven RPGs, few titles manage to balance gripping narrative tension with genuine philosophical weight. Enter , the latest iterative release from the one-person development studio TowerBoyGames.

The core gameplay loop of By Justice or Mercy is minimalistic by design, stripping away complex inventory management or party building in favor of pure narrative decision-making. The player is placed in the role of a judge or arbiter, presented with a defendant, their crime, and their circumstances. The mechanical binary—choosing between "Justice" (often interpreted as strict punishment or execution) and "Mercy" (forgiveness or rehabilitation)—acts as the game’s primary engine.

The title itself is a question, and every line of code, every line of dialogue, is designed to force the player to answer it.

The story may revolve around a protagonist who finds themselves at the helm of a revolution or a critical event that challenges the existing legal and moral order of their society. Players are faced with difficult choices: to enforce the law to the letter, thereby upholding justice, or to show mercy and compassion, potentially altering the course of lives and the community.
