Reasoning

The store disclosure states AI was used for some textures, which players see, so scope is parts rather than none. The developer has one release, 15 reviews at 86% positive, and no sign of volume output. The curator note adds nothing beyond the disclosure.

Against: Only textures are disclosed as AI, and the game has a modest but positive review base, suggesting real development effort.
