| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe store disclosure states artwork is partly AI-generated, so some shipped visuals are AI. The game is an interactive fiction title with a small scope, and there are no signs of mass-produced volume beyond the studio's release pace. Nine releases in 12 months is below the 12+ threshold for high effort risk. Against: The studio has 14 of 18 games disclosing AI and 9 releases in 12 months, which hints at a high-volume pattern, but it does not meet the stated threshold for high effort risk. |
