• Abstract: Developing a consistent and reliable AI game master for text-based games is a challenging task due to the limitations of large language models (LLMs) and the complexity of the game master's role. This paper presents a novel approach to enhance AI game masters by leveraging function calling in the context of the table-top role-playing game "Jim Henson's Labyrinth: The Adventure Game." Our methodology involves integrating game-specific controls through functions, which we show improves the narrative quality and state update consistency of the AI game master. The experimental results, based on human evaluations and unit tests, demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach in enhancing gameplay experience and maintaining coherence with the game state. This work contributes to the advancement of game AI and interactive storytelling, offering insights into the design of more engaging and consistent AI-driven game masters.

  The IDGE project aims to democratize game development by enabling a large language model to follow free-form game descriptions and generate game-play processes. We train the IDGE in a curriculum manner that progressively increases its exposure to complex scenarios. Our initial progress lies in developing an IDGE for Poker, which not only supports a wide range of poker variants but also allows for highly individualized new poker games through natural language inputs.

  In strategy games, one of the most important aspects of game design is maintaining a sense of challenge for players. We propose an automated approach that combines traditional scripted methods with reinforcement learning. Results show that combining a learned approach, such as reinforcement learning, with a scripted AI produces a higher-performing and more robust agent than using only AI.

  This chapter outlines the relation between artificial intelligence (AI) / machine learning (ML) algorithms and digital games. On one hand, AI/ML researchers can generate large, in-the-wild datasets of human affective activity, player behaviour. On the other hand, games can utilise intelligent algorithms to automate testing of game levels, generate content, develop intelligent and responsive non-player characters (NPCs) or predict and respond player behaviour.

Text-based computer games describe their world to the player through natural language and expect the player to interact with the game using text. These games are of interest as they can be seen as a testbed for language understanding, problem-solving, and language generation by artificial agents.
