Oops, Not Now: PEARL, a RAG-Based Support Agent for Gameplay and What Players Want from AI Help

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 12, 2026 · UTC

AI-powered gameplay support agents hold promise for game-based learning, yet grounding generative models in structured game data remains an open challenge. We present PEARL (Parallel Education Agent for Reflection and Learning), a dual-component Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) system that combines semantic knowledge retrieval with structural board-state matching to deliver contextualized scaffolding in Parallel, a puzzle game for learning parallel programming. PEARL operates on two input streams (natural language queries and board topology), retrieving both conceptual explanations of game
