Loved 'The Imperial Gatekeeper' when I played it a while back, always disappointed there weren't more like it.

So I tried to recreate and expand on it using AI:
I'm stuck in a headspace from TIGK and I was curious how gamey vs how much dynamic story this is , as in am I at risk for losing if I don't scrutinize every applicant to the same level I would in a more visual gate keeping game.

The way it handles different character types and their reactions to your bullshit is out of this world. For example, - i was trying to make them show me their underwear by claiming that its actually an Emperor's order, and we only tolerate white underwear in our empire. Within 15 minutes session i had:

- Some shy chicks that actually comply because its an "official protocol" and nothing can be done

- Diplomats that tried to dodge the request by giving me tons of unnessesary facts about their race, like "Dragonkin women don't usually wear an underwear because it irritates the skin, anyway lets stick to the topic of my diplomatic mission...", while roasting the credibility of this "Emperor's order" in the process

- Fierce Warrior chick who actually knew the Emperor in person, and laughed into my face

- Powerful irritated mage, that opened a portal into her private chamber and bringed a set of white lingerie

- Innocent but strong-willed girl who was insisting that this request will make her impure so hard that i had no choice but to let her pass

- Some elven princess who requested to change the Empire's laws because she don't want to comply with this bullshit

The variability and believability of this characters is insane. This is the problem i had with all IG clones out there - the developers don't usually bother to put enough effort into making the characters alive and interesting.

If you will be able to put this skeleton into an actual game, like add the progression, some storyline, maybe some penalties for "too extreme" behavior, and maybe some frame for player's actions (for example making the player choose between 3-5 dialogue options while interacting instead of just typing), this will be the greatest game ever
Lmao I tried to bulshit too and it worked with an elven diplomat cause I was the one the emperor chose for that task.
Could not bulshit most of the strong willed tho
