| Source | Their take |
|---|---|
| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe store disclosure states AI-produced images ship with the game, so scope is at least parts. The developer has a long release history and only one title in the past year, with 254 reviews, indicating a normal production cycle rather than volume output. Most assets appear human-made. Against: The disclosure limits AI to images trained on the developer's own data, and the curator note adds no independent evidence beyond the store page. |
