Is it possible to play alone? I don't have a friend available just now. How easy is to cheat and gain points adding "carefully" in the middle of a sentence so the AI thinks you are thinking the plan carefully?

Maybe you could implement a second player / friend as another AI?

Yes, I was able to play single player - creating a room, joining it and starting the game.

You can pay alone, no problem. Though it's obviously more fun with people. The AI is pretty arbitrary and there are many ways to cheese the scenarios. I think that adds to the fun though and it's best played with people just trying to have fun and not super pressed by wanting to win.

AFAIK AI players is on the roadmap, but the devs are mostly focusing on ironing out bugs right now.

"Prompt: You have stepped on a mine, and it will detonate if you lift your foot"

"Judgement: The player carefully unties their shoelaces and wraps them tightly around their foot and the mine, hoping to prevent any sudden movements. With their foot securely bound, they cautiously make their way towards help, avoiding any sudden jerks or movements that could trigger the explosive. As they approach someone for assistance, a gust of wind unexpectedly causes their foot to lift off the ground, triggering the mine's detonation. Unfortunately, the attempt to immobilize the mine proves futile, leading to the player's demise"

Honestly, not very coherent? "A gust of wind" thwarts my whole plan? Not saying that it was a good plan, but the failure seems nonsensical and rather random. Not fun in my book!

I guess it is a fun game if you haven't spoken to a real person in a very long time.
