What the developer says
Some 2D artwork shipping in this game was created with the assistance of generative AI image tools, then edited by hand before inclusion. This applies to a portion of card illustrations and UI decorative elements. All such assets were checked for quality and rights compliance prior to shipping. This game does not generate any content with AI at runtime. The computer opponent is a conventional rules-based system, not a generative AI model.

| AI judgment deepseek-flash | AI-assisted · AI scope: parts · effort risk: lowReasoningThe disclosure states AI image tools assisted a portion of card art and UI decoration, with hand editing afterward. No runtime generation; the opponent is a conventional rules-based system. One release in 12 months and 7 reviews suggest a small, single-title effort rather than volume output. Against: Hand editing and quality/rights checks suggest real production work; only a portion of assets are affected, and the game has a modest but positive review score. |
