| Source | Their take |
|---|---|
| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe developer discloses AI for character portraits, main-menu paintings, and intro images, so some shipped assets are AI-generated. These are limited asset types within a dungeon crawler, with no sign AI covers most of the game. The studio has few releases and only one of three games discloses AI, so volume signals don't support mass production. Against: Only 2 reviews and 0% positive long after release could hint at low effort, but the studio's release pace is low and AI is confined to portraits and menu/intro art. |
