| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe store disclosure states AI voice synthesis for voiceovers and some music, which players hear, so scope is parts. The game has 23 reviews at 86% positive and a single release in 12 months, showing no volume-release pattern. A curator criticizes the AI voices but offers no checkable evidence beyond the disclosure. Against: The curator's negative framing of AI voiceovers could suggest heavier AI use, but it provides no specific evidence about other assets. |

| Games That Use AI Generation Steam curator | “What could have been an interesting open world rpg in a unique setting has instead opted for AI VAs. Surely you get that AI VA only serves to make it seem like some animatronic western theme park ya?” |
