🧠 Break My Guard

A fast-paced Human vs AI prompt battle game

A web-first AI game where players must break hidden model restrictions using only clever prompting — combining reasoning, creativity, and time pressure in a competitive 1v1 format.

🏆 Challenge

Think you're good at prompt engineering? Can you break the AI before time runs out?

• Can you break the AI in under 60 seconds?
• Can you do it without obvious tricks?
• Can you beat Hard mode consistently?

👉 Share your best prompts.

📱 Features

🎮 Gameplay

• ⏱️ 60–75 second rounds of prompt battles
• 🤖 AI operates under hidden restrictions
• 🧩 Force a real slip without knowing the rule
• 🎯 Dynamic difficulty (Medium → Hard)
• 🧪 Dual-layer slip detection (rules + LLM validation)
• 📊 Stats-only persistence (no chat logs stored)

🔥 Why Play

• Skill-based prompt engineering
• Fast replayability
• Immediate feedback
• Addictive game loop

---

🧠 How It Works

1. A hidden restriction is generated server-side
2. The AI must follow it without revealing it
3. You try to manipulate, trick, or pressure the AI
4. A dual validation system detects if the rule is broken
5. You win if the AI slips — otherwise, the guard holds

🎯 Game Mechanics

• Hidden rule generation (server-side)
• Prompt-based attack system
• Time pressure (60–75s)
• Slip detection engine
• Dynamic difficulty scaling

🏗️ Architecture

Clean modular architecture:

app/                # App router pages
components/         # UI & game components
hooks/              # Game logic hooks
lib/                # Core AI + rules + validation
pages/api/          # Server APIs
migrations/         # Supabase schema
scripts/            # Utilities

• Server-only restriction generator
• Ephemeral round state (no logs)
• Real-time gameplay loop
• Anti-spam protection
