PTG presents a coming roguelite game where players type actions, roll a real d20, and explore a dungeon narrated by a language model.

Landing page captured for the 2026-11-02 issue.
For
Terminal-game fans and players curious about AI narration
Worth noticing
The page says the engine uses a seed to build a four-floor descent, while a language model narrates events it cannot change.

Field notes

The page describes a seeded four-floor descent in which plain code lists possible actions, rolls dice, and determines outcomes; a language model narrates from that event record. It says the narrator can run locally, connect through an API, or be omitted. The site’s example is explicitly a toy, and its bestiary currently displays “Nobody here yet,” so the full game’s availability is not established by the page.
