The core paintings are genuine public-domain scans, and the game has 21 reviews with a mixed-positive score, showing real development rather than volume release. Only 2 games in 12 months, so no mass-production signal. Against: Developer's 6 of 6 games disclose AI use, but that alone doesn't establish low effort for this title. |
