| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe store disclosure states AI-assisted assets like background art and text drafts, so some shipped content is AI-influenced. Gameplay is fixed, not dynamically generated, and the game is a lore-rich narrative title suggesting human design. The developer has only one game and no rapid release pattern, so effort risk is low. Against: The game is unreleased with no reviews, and the disclosure is vague about how much of the final art or writing is AI-assisted versus drafted. |
