| Source | Their take |
|---|---|
| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | AI-assisted · AI scope: minor · effort risk: lowReasoningThe disclosure limits AI to a single manual photo, a small in-game detail. The developer has one game, no rapid release pattern, and strong review volume. Curator note only repeats the store disclosure. Against: The AI image ships inside the game as a manual asset, so it is not purely marketing material. |
