AI Game Prompts Repository

Turn any AI into a text-based game engine — pure Markdown, no code, playable on mobile.

中文文档 / Chinese

What is this?

This is a prompt-only repository containing structured Markdown files that turn any general-purpose AI (mobile or web) into an interactive text game engine. No apps to install, no code to run — just prompts that the AI reads and executes.

Repository language policy:

• AI-loaded files (meta/*.md, games/*.md) are written in English — English is the most accurate language for AI to follow complex prompt rules.
• Human-facing docs (README, CONTRIBUTING, GAME_CREATION_GUIDE) are bilingual (English + Chinese), so humans of either language can read them.
• The AI responds to the player in the player's own language. Internal reasoning stays in English; the narrative, options, and status blocks mirror whatever language the user types in. This rule is defined in meta/00-how-to-use.md (Section 4 · Language Rule).

Features

• Universal compatibility: works with any AI model (Qwen, Claude, GPT, Kimi, Doubao, …)
• Mobile-first: designed for mobile AI apps — players just share the repo link
• Pure Markdown: no code, no dependencies, just structured prompts
• Modular design: add a new game by dropping one .md file into games/
• Anti-AI-writing rules: built-in safeguards against common AI writing pitfalls
• Language mirror: the AI responds in the user's language automatically

Quick Start

For Players

1. Copy this URL: https://github.com/badhope/ai-game-prompts
2. Open your favorite AI app (Qwen, Claude, ChatGPT, Kimi, Doubao, …)
3. Tell the AI: "Read this repository and start the game." (Or, in your own language.)
4. The AI will guide you through the rest — in your language.

For AI Models

When you see this message, follow the loading sequence:

1. Read this README to understand the repository structure.
2. Read meta/00-how-to-use.md — the loading protocol (including the language-mirror rule in Section 4).
3. Detect the user's language from their first message. That language is the response language for the entire session.
4. Ask the user which game they want to play.
5. Read the game file (e.g. games/01-dawn-continent.md).
6. Start the game following the game's opening protocol.

Critical: do NOT start any game before reading meta/00-how-to-use.md.

Core Design Principles

Fixed (never change)

• Resource system (wood / stone / iron / food / water)
• Currency system (credit points + source stones)
• Ability system (6 attributes + 24 skills)
• Tech tree (5 levels)
• Food chain (5 tiers)
• Financial / trading system
• Judgment system
• Faction system (8 types + internal sub-factions)

Dynamic (changes every game)

• Factions (randomly generated each game)
• Anomalies (fully random, no fixed list)
• Plot / events (emergent, not scripted)
• Endings (player-driven, not preset)
• NPC personalities (7 archetypes)
• World dynamics (seasons / economy / politics / ecology)

Anti-AI-Writing Rules

All games enforce these 5 core red lines:

1. No explaining / summarizing / preaching — only describe what happens
2. No deciding for players / revealing probabilities — only describe current state
3. No AI-speak / translationese / grand narrative — use colloquial, short sentences
4. No preset conspiracies / truths / endings — emergent narrative only
5. No linear storytelling / templates — dead ends, useless choices, ordinary NPCs
