🤖 Review: The Last Caretaker – A Survival Gem Begging for Co-Op
There is really rampant AI usage for pretty much all of the world building, patchnotes, and even voice acting (I can't personally confirm that last piece, but the complete lack of voice acting credits visible, plus the aforementioned use of AI for pretty much every piece of lore you can find, make it a very likely candidate).

Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway.
