This was going to happen eventually.
The premise is simple. It's a Danganronpa ripoff, with a mix of decision tree dialogues and chatbot dialogues. Of course, the art is all made by AI too. But that's not the important part. Check this out:

They want $12 for a full playthrough, and $3 for an Ironman run. In other words, the $12 run is considered complete when you hit an ending. The other is considered complete when you reach an ending or die. Either way, all of your saves are deleted when your run is considered complete.
It is possible to see the restrictions of the cheaper option, which are:

Speaking of which, the game isn't even officially out yet. Anyone who gives these people money must be a particular kind of dumb. Considering that these guys don't allow anything other than their service to run the AI generation, it wouldn't surprise me if they put a hidden flag in their game that tries to kill the player character as soon as possible when they're using the cheap option. If they can get enough suckers to pay up, they can make a decent profit that way.
And judging by the reviews made by 餐巾纸 and H, it looks like at least some of the reviewers were bribed with playthrough tokens.

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Thanks for the warning. I am currently playing Rain Code and I was about to go look for similar games like that.
Charging people money to play the game is diabolical.
