"Verbal Verdict", a video game still under development whose demo can be found on Steam, immerses the player in a series of interrogations with potential suspects for criminal acts. Unlike other games in the genre, this indie production uses Large Language Models within the gameplay - they allow the player to ask any kind of question, receiving answers generated by artificial intelligence.

LLMs are a type of AI that uses deep learning techniques and large datasets to understand, summarise, generate and predict new content - making them the perfect answer generator within similar games. That said, it is important to remember that there is always the possibility that the generated answers are not accurate, or completely wrong.

Nevertheless, if used knowledgeably and with the supervision and control of a human being, this kind of AI could become a valuable resource for developers of similar entertainment.
