What the developer says
Artwork note: some visuals were generated with AI models in this early version. For now the focus is on mechanics, so they are placeholders. Over time I will make the style more consistent and replace them with assets designed specifically for AoNW.

What other sources say
| Source | Their take |

| Steam disclosure | AI content disclosed |
| AI judgment deepseek-flash | Partial AI · solid production, medium confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states some visuals ship to players as AI-generated placeholders, so AI content is present but limited to part of the art. The developer frames it as an early-version stopgap with plans to replace assets. Only one release in the last 12 months, so no volume-release signal. Against: The developer explicitly calls the AI visuals placeholders to be replaced, and the game is a mechanics-focused early build with a small review count, which limits how much AI content likely ships. |
