| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe store disclosure states AI was used for some images and voice-over, so AI assets ship to players. The developer has only one release in the past year, so there is no volume-release pattern. Curator note matches the disclosure but adds no independent evidence. Against: Only 3 reviews long after release, but a single release does not indicate mass production. |
