AI-assisted · AI scope: minor · effort risk: low
Reasoning

The disclosure limits AI to the cover image, a marketing asset, so in-game scope is minor. The developer has released few games and shows no volume-release pattern. No reviews exist, but that alone doesn't indicate low effort.

Against: Zero reviews 18 months after release could suggest low visibility or limited effort, but there is no evidence of mass production or AI in shipped game assets.
