|---|---|
| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states pre-rendered AI art is included but optional, so some shipped assets are AI-generated. The game is a full simulation with management, economy and sandbox systems, and 80 reviews at 90% positive suggest real development effort. The developer has only one game and no rapid release pattern. Against: AI art is optional and replaceable, and the developer's only release shows no volume pattern, both pointing away from mass production. |
