What this game has, and who said so
- In-game purchasesEstimated
Estimated: the game is listed free-to-play, so it earns its money somewhere. Not a disclosure of how.
Not shown
Nothing in the store listing named these, and nobody has checked by hand. Sifter has not been shown them — which is not the same as showing they are absent.
AI Generated Content Disclosure
Declared by the publisherThe developers describe how their game uses AI generated content like this:
Language support, art and music support
Required on Steam store pages since 2024. It covers content that ships in the game, on its store page or in its marketing — Valve does not require a disclosure for AI tools used during development, so this says nothing either way about how the game was made. Check it on Steam.
How the facts are weighted
Estimated- Microtransactions+2
In-game purchases sells cosmetic items only — no gameplay advantage.
Points reflect severity, not just presence — cosmetic-only purchases score far lower than pay-for-power. The weights, and the regulator actions and studies behind each one, are published on the provenance page.

Ownership
This game is yours to keep
- Plays offline — no server dependency, so it can't be switched off remotely.
- Installing the Steam release takes a Steam account. Steam doesn't publish whether this title is otherwise DRM-free, so we can't confirm it runs standalone.
This describes the Steam release only — editions of the same game sold on other stores come with those stores' own terms.
Whether you keep what you paid for is its own question, separate from the score. How Sifter measures games →
