The Story Games AI tool is available on the official project website and in its mobile app, allowing users to conveniently design games, almost as if they were sketching them out spontaneously on their smartphones. When selecting a theme for their visual novel, creators aren't limited in their creative scope. The AI is just as adept at producing romantic or fantasy stories as it is at crafting noir detective tales or sci-fi dystopias.

To get started, users simply need to respond to a few narrative-related questions. Thanks to its multilingual capabilities, the tool generates the game in whichever language the developer poses their inquiry in. Once the AI processes the given data, it unveils its rendition of the novel, showcasing:

• The game title,
• Intro sequences and accompanying music,
• A mission statement for players,
• 10 chapters, each with its distinct storyline and graphics,
• Interactive choices influencing the character profiles. 

Buildbox has kind of been known for making hypercasual games for a long time. So it was definitely a new kind of undertaking. Then with all the AI stuff happening, it just made sense to put all those technologies together. So you can now just type any storyline that you want, and it will create the first 10 chapters for you,

Jonathan Zweig, the CEO of Buildbox, remarks.

It's not mandatory to answer every question the AI poses. Players have the liberty to bypass specific details or opt for preset choices. However, the primary concept and overarching message should be uniquely theirs. They can oversee the game-making process through an action log. Story Games AI processes novels one at a time: trying to run dual tasks concurrently will halt its operation.

Despite its seeming ease of use, it would be a mistake to perceive the AI simply as a source of mediocre content. Zweig is convinced that everyone possesses the capability to craft truly distinct narratives when equipped with such an innovative platform and the assistance of AI. The creative horizons within Story Games AI are boundless, making it a valuable tool for not just gamers, but professionals across diverse sectors. This includes entrepreneurs, educators, and doctors, especially when they aim to incorporate gamified elements into presentations or educational materials.
