<h2 id="gameplay">Gameplay</h2> <p><i>AI Dungeon</i> is a text adventure game that uses artificial intelligence to generate random storylines in response to player-submitted stimuli.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:1" href="#fn:1"><sup>1</sup></a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:2" href="#fn:2"><sup>2</sup></a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:3" href="#fn:3"><sup>3</sup></a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:4" href="#fn:4"><sup>4</sup></a> </p><p>In the game, players are prompted to choose a setting for their adventure (e.g. <a href="/facts/Fantasy/gkujmhJg">fantasy</a>, <a href="/facts/Mystery_fiction/6GX6KBYy">mystery</a>, <a href="/facts/Apocalyptic_and_post-apocalyptic_fiction/6a9bYkqe">apocalyptic</a>, <a href="/facts/Cyberpunk/3MIjfHNL">cyberpunk</a>, <a href="/facts/Zombie/LR5MoBP8">zombies</a>),<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:5" href="#fn:5"><sup>5</sup></a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:6" href="#fn:6"><sup>6</sup></a> followed by other options relevant to the setting (such as <a href="/facts/Character_class/I0WvlXq6">character class</a> for fantasy settings).<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:7" href="#fn:7"><sup>7</sup></a> </p><p>After beginning an adventure, four main interaction methods can be chosen for the player's text input:<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:8" href="#fn:8"><sup>8</sup></a> </p> <ul><li>Do: Must be followed by a <a href="/facts/Verb/zp42buvn">verb</a>, allowing the player to perform an action.</li> <li>Say: Must be followed by <a href="/facts/Dialogue/a3etwdsd">dialogue sentences</a>, allowing players to communicate with other characters.</li> <li>Story: Can be followed by sentences describing something that happens to progress the story, or that players want the AI to know for future events.</li> <li>See: Must be followed by a description, allowing the player to perceive events, objects, or characters.

Grannell praised the game's flexibility and its custom story feature, but criticized the abrupt shifts in content that were common in the GPT-2 edition of the game:<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:89" href="#fn:89"><sup>89</sup></a></p><blockquote><p>"[<i>AI Dungeon</i> is] an endless world of dreamlike storytelling, and a fascinating glimpse into the future of AI."<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:90" href="#fn:90"><sup>90</sup></a></p></blockquote><p>Campbell Bird of <i>148Apps</i> also awarded this edition of the game 4 out of 5 stars in his review, also praising its creativity whilst criticizing the lack of memory for previous content:<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:91" href="#fn:91"><sup>91</sup></a></p><blockquote><p><i>"AI Dungeon</i> is like doing <a href="/facts/Improvisational_theatre/rUdPhRjJ">improv</a> with a partner who is equal parts enthusiastic and drunk...
