Daruma and Akabeko released the AI-driven RPG Instantale.

Daruma and Akabeko have released Instantale, an AI-driven RPG where death is permanent. A play report from Game Spark describes a character dying to the first enemy encountered, then being killed by crows on a low-level quest. The player character starts with no weapons or armor, and buying gear is necessary to survive. The game uses AI to generate character portraits, handle freeform player commands, and produce dialogue with townspeople. Players can rest at inns, do day labor for money, or train, but stamina and health must be managed carefully. Each death sends the player back to character creation with no save or retry.
