Building a 32-Character Murder Mystery Game Generator

I’ll walk through building a production murder mystery generator that creates full games with 6-32 characters using Claude’s API. The talk covers the real costs and constraints of AI at scale, my automation architecture using Make.com for orchestration, and the specific technical challenges I hit when generating complex JSON structures for game content. I’ll show the actual webhook flows, how I handle character generation failures, and my debugging approach when Claude outputs invalid JSON that breaks the entire workflow.
