Poki&#8217;s quality guidelines explicitly address AI use and don&#8217;t ban it, but they flag it as a review risk: &#8220;Poki encourages creative experimentation, and that includes thoughtful use of AI tools,&#8221; while also warning that &#8220;games created (solely) with AI can create IP ownership issues.&#8221; (<a href=\"https:\/\/sdk.poki.com\/poki-quality-guidelines\">sdk.poki.com\/poki-quality-guidelines<\/a>) You need to be able to show which tools you used and give an overview of your creation process, prompts and iterations on request, and you must remove any visible AI watermarks or prompt text from the final build. For testing AI builds, <a href=\"https:\/\/playgama.com\/mcp\/\">Playgama MCP<\/a> lets agents upload builds and publish sandboxes.<\/p>\n<p>Two things trip developers up. First, licensing: check the terms of any AI art or audio tool before shipping &#8211; some restrict commercial use or require credit, and if the tool&#8217;s terms conflict with Poki&#8217;s requirement to prove clean ownership, the game can get stuck in review. Second, untested output: Poki&#8217;s guidance is clear that no untested generated content should ship, so run a full playtest pass on any AI-generated levels, dialogue or art before submitting.<\/p>\n<p>Since Poki is a curated platform that hand-picks releases, treat AI disclosure as part of submission prep, not an afterthought. Read the current guidelines directly before you submit, since platform rules change: <a href=\"https:\/\/sdk.poki.com\/poki-quality-guidelines\">sdk.poki.com\/poki-quality-guidelines<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/developers.poki.com\/guide\/requirements-quality\">developers.poki.com\/guide\/requirements-quality<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Sources<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/sdk.poki.com\/poki-quality-guidelines\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Content &#038; player safety | Poki Documentation<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/developers.poki.com\/guide\/requirements-quality\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Requirements | Poki Documentation<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/developers.poki.com\/guide\/working-with-poki\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Working with Poki | Poki Documentation<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/playgama.com\/mcp\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Playgama MCP<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Related questions<\/h2>\n<h3>Can I keep AI-generated art in my Poki game if a tool&#8217;s license restricts commercial use?<\/h3>\n<p>Check the tool&#8217;s terms first.
