AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

Generative AI tools have assisted development and the preparation of marketing text. The planned Steam version uses prewritten dialogue options and responses, not text generated by a model during play. AI for character behaviour, routines and decisions is separate from generative AI. The final release package remains subject to validation.

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

Death 1879 contains graphic violence, blood, dead bodies, decapitation and dismemberment. It features psychological horror and mature themes of death, executions, severe punishment and persecution, with references to suicide and drugs and implied alcohol consumption. It also includes non-graphic references to sexual intimacy and character assets depicting underwear and partial non-sexual nudity, without graphic sexual acts. Violent events and their aftermath may recur depending on player actions and events in the village.
