"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.

Mine is plainly impossible: Prompt: You forgot how to breathe Despite X's attempt to breathe, the autonomous and unconscious neural network fails to respond, leaving him unable to restore his breath. As time passes, X's oxygen levels plummet, and his body gradually succumbs to the lack of oxygen. With no alternatives available to regain their ability to breathe, David sadly succumbs to the situation. I should have sa…

I survived by pointing out that I’m not human and breathing is an optional characteristic I use to blend in.

In a way this is a “playground of ten year olds one-up each other” simulator.

To make the game more fun, think about letting the scenarios mess with each other. Right now, they kinda just happen on their own. But imagine if one user's scenario could throw a curveball into the next person's situation. Like, you can try to mess up someone else's plans. It's a party game, after all. That could add a cool and funny twist to keep things interesting.

I think there is would be another great way to take advantage of AI here, following inspiration from the Jackbox games. In the Jackbox game I played the most, there were intermediate games where there was a chance that you would lose your finger, leaving you unable to pick some of the choices in following questions. I think in a similar vein it would be cool that you can catch negative traits over multiple prompts th…

I absolutely love that idea. The AI could absolutely pick a negative trait when the player survives. Maybe they gain a positive trait when they die? That way it might balance out a little.

I was trapped in a room with a hungry lion. I gave it some meat spiked with drugs. The AI ignored the meat and decided that I only gave it the drugs. The lion died immediately. According to the AI, I was deeply saddened by this unintended consequence. So, obviously I did not survive. What?

I feel like this is one pivot away from a highly addictive game. The concept of using prompts and AI to mediate gameplay is novel - but in this current form not fluid enough to make it fun. If you could somehow reduce the time from the prompting to the outcome, and introduce some platform elements, that would probably increase playability by 10x.

Still great idea and uncertain if music (and works well on my iPhone)

The game is still in beta and a bit buggy, but it's a great application of AI where its weaknesses can actually turn into strengths as it makes for funny output.

Thanks for posting!

I think there are in general quite a few party-like games which could incorporate the current generation of AI in fun ways. E.g. I'd love to see a Garticphone[0] game mode where instead of drawing yourself a DALL-E/Midjourney generates images based on you prompt, and subsequent players have to try and reverse-engineer it.

You can survive any scenario by basically telling the AI that you survive. AI: "Your elderly next door neighbour is hellbent on killing you" User: "I calm him down and we become best friends" I wonder if it would be possible to instruct the AI to bypass this some how.

Probably needs prompt #1, to rewrite the users input to remove any implied outcome of the users action. Then pass this string into the original prompt.

I said that I benefited from anti-aging cure, but the LLM said that no, the researchers did not listened to me.

I wonder when AI will be used to improve NPC dialog and imrpove mission generation on side-missions. If I were Rockstar that would be my main goal for GTA6.
