How do you prevent an AI-generated game from losing the plot?
Did you ever get to the end of Wizard of Oz and have notes – the nagging intuition that you could have taken down all those pesky flying monkeys or handled the backstabbing intricacies of Munchkin guild politics more effectively than Dorothy and her band of misfits did in the books? Thanks to the new AI storytelling platform Hidden Door, which plops players into TTRPG-like adventures based in their favorite literary universes, you'll soon have the chance to walk the Yellow Brick Road however you see fit. Hidden Door is both the company and the game. Hidden Door, the company, was co-founded by Hilary Mason, who is also CEO, and Matt Brandwein in 2020 with a mission to "inspire creativity through play with narrative AI." The staff is split nearly evenly between machine learning engineers and traditional game designers, Mason told Engadget.
