What the developer says
This game uses live generative AI to create text-based character dialogue, diaries, journey events, NPC conversations, and outcomes of player-directed interactions. Responses are generated from player-created character profiles, recent in-game memories, current objectives, and player messages. Relevant text context is sent to a third-party AI service to generate these responses. Generated content may vary between sessions and may occasionally produce unexpected results. AI is not used to generate executable code or modify files on the player's device.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | AI-driven · mixed signals, high confidenceReasoningThe disclosure states AI generates dialogue, diaries, events and NPC conversations live during play, which is core to a text-based RPG. Art and code are not AI-generated, and the developer has only one release, so volume signals are absent. Six reviews after two months is thin but not enough for high effort risk. Against: Only one game released, no evidence of mass production; AI is limited to text, not code or files. |
