That's not even marketing speak. I'm an actual marketing copywriter.

It's a bland description of a type of game and of game features. Nothing exciting about how it's written.

Since the dev replied to me, I was thinking of offering them free help, since it's a competitive marketplace and I like seeing small developers succeed. except then I saw they used AI in the game's development. Hard pass.
