What the developer says
During the development of WarBoard: Arena Empire, generative AI tools (including Google Gemini and similar image models) were used to help create some of the game's visual assets, such as unit sprites, faction banners, UI artwork, and store page marketing materials (capsule images, background art, key art). All AI-assisted assets were carefully reviewed, edited, curated, and integrated by the developer to ensure they fit the game's historical theme and visual style. No copyrighted, trademarked, or personally identifiable content was used as input. The game does not use any real-time or live generative AI during gameplay. All gameplay systems, code, game logic, unit stats, UI behavior, localization, and design decisions are hand-crafted by the developer. Players will not encounter AI-generated content being produced while playing — everything shipped in the game is finalized, reviewed, and baked into the build before release.

| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Major AI · mixed signals, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI image models produced several in-game asset types: unit sprites, banners, and UI artwork, plus marketing art. That covers most visual content, though code, logic, and design are described as hand-crafted. The developer has 7 releases in 12 months and all 8 games disclose AI, but the game has no reviews yet, so volume alone doesn't reach high effort risk. Against: Developer says AI assets were reviewed, edited, and curated, and no live generation occurs; only visuals are affected, not gameplay or writing. |
