I keep posting about Stable Diffusion, but I do experiment with Large Language Models too! I do not have much to contribute in this regard, instead, here is the transcript of a game I played with the open source Mistral 7B model via Ollama.
Installing
I downloaded Ollama 0.1.29 and installed the Mistral model on my MacBook with M1 Pro (8+2 CPU cores, 16 GPU cores and only 16 GB RAM).
Running Ollama.app for the first time, it will ensure that the ollama CLI can be run from the terminal. After which, start Terminal.app, and do ollama run mistral. The model will be downloaded on first use, in this case, about 4.1 GB:

success I also installed the preview version of Ollama for Windows, on my Windows 10 desktop, which has an Nvidia RTX 2060 with 12 GB RAM.
The installer places the model files into the user’s folder in a folder called .ollama\models. I wanted to change the location of this folder, and this solution worked for me. Make sure to stop Ollama in system tray if is running, before moving the models folder to a location of your choice. Then create a symbolic link to the new folder, e.g.:
mklink /D C:\Users\<username>\.ollama\models E:\AI\Ollama\ModelsThe Game
Here is the full, unedited transcript, with my inputs in red.
Mistral has good understanding of the context and understands logical scenarios and related next steps. It got a bit repetitive towards the middle and most obviously at the end. In the first case, I stopped to ask about a “boss battle” to which Mistral made an apology (which is funny ha-ha, and not necessary), and in the second case, I have a feeling there would have been no ending without my prompting.
However, I did not give explicit instructions about any expectations of a boss battle or a conclusion either, so I can’t fault the model’s... “ingenuity”. As an example, in a different run, the model generated a scenario around a “high-tech dungeon known as the "Nexus Labyrinth."” That time, Mistral was very, very verbose, even worse than in this example. Here you can see that half-way, though the model started to get more verbose by adding a preamble after the options were presented - towards the end it was constantly repeating the phrase “wisdom and courage granted”! :)

>>> pretend we are playing a multi-user dungeon (mud) game. i am the player and you are the dungeon master. your descriptions are short and terse but provide hints for the player to decide on the next course of action. you start by explaining the scenario and objective, then suggest possible next steps for the player.
In the dimly lit depths of the Forgotten Caverns, ancient magic throbs
with an unpredictable rhythm. You stand before a gargantuan stone door
etched with cryptic runes, feeling the weight of destiny upon your
shoulders. Your objective: decipher the runes and unlock the door to reach
the heart of this labyrinth, where legend speaks of untold treasure and
knowledge.

2. Seek counsel from fellow adventurers or scholars in the mud's
community.
3. Explore nearby areas for clues and valuable items.
4. Risk brute force by attempting to break down the door.>>> i shall explore the nearby areas, searching carefully for hidden items
As you tread cautiously along the cavernous floor, your keen senses are
rewarded with a faint glimmer of gold peeking out from behind a craggy
boulder. You approach it warily, noticing an ancient parchment nestled
between two rocks nearby. The parchment bears the same cryptic runes as
those adorning the door; a possible clue to its decipherment?
1. Pick up the gold and study the parchment for hidden meaning.
2. Ignore the treasure and focus solely on decoding the runes.
3. Share your discovery with fellow adventurers in the mud's community for
assistance.>>> 2

seemingly unrelated symbols. The runes etched upon it mirror those
adorning the door. Studiously, you examine every detail, searching for any
hidden meaning or connection to the runes on the door.

patterns.

insights.

sequence of runes on the parchment corresponds to their arrangement on the
door. Further analysis and experimentation are required before attempting
such an action.
1. Study the parchment more closely for any clues regarding the correct
order of the runes.
2. Consult with fellow adventurers or scholars in the mud's community for
their input.

making a decision.>>> 1
You scrutinize the parchment intently, focusing on every minute detail.

time.

accompanied by a brilliant flash of light that momentarily blinds you. As
your vision gradually returns, you find yourself gazing upon an
intricately carved staircase that spirals upwards, leading deeper into the
heart of the Forgotten Caverns.

within.
