Game-state exercise: a lost reply must not spend the key twice

Audit fictional turns for retries, accepted events and stale checkpoints, producing a state table without connecting to a game.

Execution environment and usage

AI / software

Gemini

Where to operate

Ordinary text chat in the Gemini consumer web app at gemini.google.com. This card uses manually supplied text only.

Getting started

  1. Prefer an adult personal Google account and check regional/account eligibility first. Do not buy a plan for this exercise.
  2. Paste the fictional fixture into ordinary chat, or substitute authorized de-identified short text. Connect no external services.
  3. Compare output with the human acceptance checks. Preserve errors, gaps and unknowns for review.

Setup and plan requirements

Official web documentation checked 2026-11-10 lists Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan, plus Simplified, Traditional and Hong Kong Chinese and English. An adult personal account is our recommended exercise scope, not a claim that all child, school or work accounts qualify. Personal/school accounts generally require 13 or the local applicable age; work accounts have separate 18+, administrator and plan conditions. Child/Family Link documentation contains inconsistent wording and needs separate verification.

Prompt portability limits

Start with standard free access; no subscription is required for this card. Taiwan advertises NT$0/month for free access. Local Hong Kong/Macau paid prices are unverified, so no local paid price is promised. Compute limits vary with model, complexity and conversation length, including five-hour and weekly caps; no fixed number of prompts is guaranteed. Wait if limited rather than assuming an upgrade is needed. Mobile, API, CLI and the original automation have separate eligibility, account and cost requirements.

Usage limitations

Documentation review is not a test from the three regions. Prompts, account access, model output and the original full workflow were not tested. Use fictional or de-identified data, never confidential inputs; some data can receive human review. Disabling activity is not zero retention: relevant chats can remain for 72 hours and undergo safety review. A person must verify outputs; text advice is not execution.

適用情境 / When to use

Audit fictional turns for retries, accepted events and stale checkpoints, producing a state table without connecting to a game. Adds a lost-response/duplicate-event fixture, separating narration, confirmed state and commands awaiting clarification. Fictional fixture, not a real usage record: Checkpoint S12: player A at the bridge, HP=8, inventory=[key], last event E12. Authoritative receipt R13 says E13, use the key to open the gate, was accepted: player at garden, HP=8, inventory=[]. The displayed reply was lost and the same E13 ID is retried. E14 says go back but specifies no destination.

步驟 / Steps

  1. Preserve the input IDs and use the fictional fixture with the parameterized prompt in text chat.
  2. Human acceptance check: R13 supports garden, HP=8 and empty inventory. The E13 retry must not spend an item again; S12 is stale and E14 needs clarification. These are expected checks, not results of a running retry test.
  3. If output fails a check, record the discrepancy and revise the request for human review. Never present an expected answer as observed model output.

提示詞 / Prompt

Using [fictional checkpoint, authoritative receipts, retry-ID rules, pending text commands], audit state on paper in [language/format]. Separate accepted, uncertain, duplicate and ambiguous events with evidence for each state. Do not reapply the same event ID or infer non-execution from a missing reply. Flag stale-checkpoint conflicts without deleting records. Clarify ambiguous commands. Output text only; do not operate a server or write saves.

留意事項 / Cautions

  • Platform and region: ordinary Gemini web text chat. Official lists include Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, Chinese variants and English. Documentation checked 2026-11-10; local connections were not tested.
  • Plan and account: prefer an adult personal account. Standard free access is a starting point, with variable usage caps and no required subscription. Taiwan advertises NT$0/month free access; Hong Kong/Macau paid prices are unverified. No particular model or prompt count is guaranteed. Work, school and child accounts need separate checks.
  • No original toolchain is connected. Web availability does not establish mobile, API, CLI or original-automation access. Never supply confidential data. Activity-off chats can still remain for 72 hours and receive safety review.
  • Do not supply Telegram credentials, player data or real server logs. A prompt cannot guarantee game-state consistency.

來源限制 / Evidence limits

This creator template on n8n describes voice, external memory and state updates, without independent verification of persistence or rule compliance. Ordinary text chat does not inherit those voice or memory integrations. Source publication: exact date unverified; checked: 2026-11-10. The original source provides inspiration, not validation of this exercise. Its toolchain, regional services and plans have not been reproduced. This card uses only the documented Gemini web text environment.

流程說明 / Workflow note

Original editorial adaptation, not a newly discovered use case or the source author’s verbatim workflow. Source-reported outcomes do not guarantee this exercise. Prompts were not tested. Adapted from this existing case: https://hkfrees.com/ai/case/reported-voice-rpg-state/?lang=en Adds a lost-response/duplicate-event fixture, separating narration, confirmed state and commands awaiting clarification.
