| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Minor AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure covers only cover art elements, which are store/marketing assets, so AI scope stays minor. The developer has a long Steam history and this title has few reviews, but nothing shows AI in shipped game assets. Curator-style signals about release volume don't establish AI content in this game. Against: The developer released 7 games in 12 months and 19 of 20 titles disclose AI, which hints at volume-driven production, but that is not evidence about this game's in-game assets. |
