What the developer says

AI-Generated Content Disclosure AI is used in the puzzle gameplay to reinterpret and redraw in-game snapshot images. AI is used in in-game chat to help players understand different languages.

Reasoning

The disclosure names two limited uses: puzzle image redraws and chat translation, both supporting features rather than core content. The game has 16,323 reviews and a full life-sim scope, indicating substantial human production. The developer released only one game in the past year, so no volume-release pattern.

Against: AI touches live gameplay visuals, which could be seen as more than minor; only 1 of 5 studio games discloses AI.
