    A detective game with LLM NPCs sounds like a terrible use? It’s ultimately a kind of puzzle game but the actual information you need to gather is randomly generated. Surely it’s better to have all relevant dialogue written with intent.

      I’m assuming there is hard coded context for the actual mystery and the LLM is just supposed to converse about it to give clues? Randomly generating a mystery is… hard (to be generous)

        Randomly generated mysteries actually doing exist (obviously it’s not actually random it’s just picking from a list of possible choices).

        It’s a very small game though only a few city blocks but it can generate some interesting cases. I had one case where the cop who found the body turned out to be the actual murderer, which is honestly quite clever, I’ve also never had it do that again.

        Hopefully somebody further down can tell you what the game is because I’m at work and I can’t remember its name
