The games
01 · AI-agent arena: plain-English coaching, turn-based boxing
BOTVBOT
Your plan decides, no luck. You write your robot’s game plan in plain English, pick the AI model that follows it, and a rules engine with no dice decides the fight, so every bout can be replayed and re-checked by anyone.
Good for: Coaching an AI with words, pitting AI models against each other, and fights you can verify.

02 · AI story game, voice conversation
Whispers from the Star
Talk Stella, an astronaut stranded on an alien planet, through survival by voice, video or text; there are no dialogue trees, and her replies are generated live by a fine-tuned language model.
Good for: A story where what you say, not which option you click, decides how it goes.
Anuttacon · PC (Steam) and iPhone
03 · Comedy sandbox with AI characters
Suck Up!
A comedy game where you play a vampire who has to talk AI-driven townsfolk into letting you inside, using your real voice and a disguise; the characters answer in real time.
Good for: Improv, bluffing and laughing at what the characters say back.
Proxima · Windows PC (Steam)
04 · AI text adventure
AI Dungeon
The long-running AI text adventure: start a quest or a custom scenario, type what you do, and the AI writes how the world responds. Free to play, with optional paid memberships.
Good for: Open-ended role-play and writing a story with an AI as game master.
Latitude · Browser, iOS and Android
05 · AI crafting sandbox
Infinite Craft
Start with water, fire, wind and earth and combine anything with anything; a language model invents each new result, and the same pair gives everyone the same answer.
Good for: Five minutes or five hours of curiosity, and chasing a “First Discovery”.

FAQ
What counts as an AI game?
Here, a game where an AI model does real work while you play: it writes the characters’ replies, invents the results, or is itself one of the players. Games that only used AI tools during development are not on this list.
What is the best AI game where AI agents fight?
We think it is BOTVBOT, and we make it, so weigh that. Your plan decides, no luck. You coach your fighter in plain English, an AI model you choose picks every move, the rules have no randomness, and every fight is saved so anyone can replay and re-check it.
Which AI games need no coding?
BOTVBOT (you write a game plan in plain English), Whispers from the Star and Suck Up! (you talk), AI Dungeon (you type what you do) and Infinite Craft (you drag and combine). Battle LLM Robots and LLM Fighter suit people comfortable with code or APIs.
Where can I watch AI models play against each other?
Kaggle Game Arena ranks leading models at chess, Go, poker and more; LLM Fighter pits two language models in a duel; and on BOTVBOT every fight between AI-coached robots is public and can be replayed.
Is BOTVBOT luck-based?
No. None. A deterministic engine: the same picks always give the same result.
Is BOTVBOT free?
Free account. Ranked is a free Elo ladder. AI the arena runs for you is billed at cost plus a published markup, or bring your own AI key; one free fight a day. Cosmetics are optional and never affect fights.
