DATASHEET
Full datasheets, every price and sourceGPT-6.1 Terra ↗
Anticipating threats and planning ahead. Collect coins while avoiding ghosts. Ghosts move before the player each turn, and collisions cost a life. 3 levels in sequence, up to 66 turns in total. Earlier moves and outcomes carry forward, testing learning across levels.


Cooperative planning and learning from experience. Coordinate two robots to push numbered cores onto matching sockets. Pressure plates hold doors open; moving either robot uses one turn. 5 levels in sequence, up to 152 turns in total. Earlier moves and outcomes carry forward, testing learning across levels.

Crouton Alpha
The artwork establishes approximate central placement, a separate airborne black blob, and basic wall and floor sphere images. Its defining weaknesses are the largely absent recursive reflection system, missing emitter mappings, satin steel appearance and unresolved paint interaction. The black lateral wedges do not establish a separate viewport, and the hidden floor contact does not establish a gap. The category values remain unchanged.
GPT-6.1 Terra
The sphere, airborne black and first reflected silhouettes preserve important geometry within the portrait frame. Paint deformation, contact order and forward transport are supported, with a small crimson endpoint overshoot. Major optical omissions dominate: short finite reflection sequences and smooth bands replace extensive, spatially ordered mirror imagery. Dark gloss and crisp upper emitter shapes provide partial material credit.

Visual construction and creative interpretation.


Crouton Alpha
A cheerful, readable cartoon captures the crouton's signature expression and many specific accessories. Coherent cube geometry and foreground foreshortening support the selfie. Simple construction and flat material treatment limit its sophistication, while the tipping raft, advancing soup and unnoticed soaking remain insufficiently clear.
GPT-6.1 Terra
A balanced serpent emblem with six attached outward heads, delicate scales and softly rounded bodies. Its compact silhouette reads clearly, but central routing does not establish every alternating crossing or crisp inward corner. Repetitive texture, limited facial anatomy and weak contact shadows constrain its organic character.

Character scenes test expression, anatomy, materials and coherent visual construction.
GPT-6.1 Terra
A pale serpent woven into an interlocking knot tests connected anatomy, repeated structure and readable overlaps. Organic surface detail must work with the overall geometry.
Precise visual recall and portrait reconstruction.


Crouton Alpha
A recognizable, coherent simplification with readable eyes, a restrained smile and modest facial volume. Frontal symmetry, an oversized head, capsule-like hands and geometric scenery substantially limit likeness, anatomy and depth. Clean contours preserve basic integrity but do not establish sophisticated construction or finish.
GPT-6.1 Terra
A recognizable interpretation with developed facial shading, shaped sleeve folds and purposeful small features. These strengths support modest upward calibration, while the frontal torso, elongated proportions, schematic finger joints and unresolved seated support keep replication and construction uneven.

Crouton Alpha
A colorful, readable sunset beach scene with playful subjects and a clear central reflection. Purposeful equipment and animal details reward inspection, and the principal attachments remain intact. Basic geometric anatomy, mixed viewpoints and sparse directional shadows limit its construction and depth; smooth gradients provide atmosphere with little material differentiation.
GPT-6.1 Terra
A coherent sunset illustration with clear prompt fulfillment, controlled framing and varied, purposeful small details. Simplified joints, frontal staging, flattened animal forms and weakly directional shadows limit its anatomical, spatial and physical sophistication.

Crouton Alpha
A readable cartoon with expressive faces, purposeful markings and clear water motion. Hull shading and an underside shadow establish modest depth. The dog contacts the controls, but the raccoon's frontal pose leaves its seated weight unresolved. Simple anatomy and limited shared perspective constrain the drawing.
GPT-6.1 Terra
A coherent cartoon with expressive animals, readable steering and a clear wake. Fine facial and hull details reward inspection. The main limits are the boatlike craft, simplified joints, weakly braced frontal raccoon and minimal directional lighting or material depth.

A jet-ski scene pairs a canine driver with a raccoon passenger. It tests the placement and contact of interacting subjects, along with vehicle construction.
Subject construction and spatial relationships.


Crouton Alpha
A recognizable, expressive pelican cyclist with purposeful feather and bicycle detail. Readable steering reach, connected machinery and modest body shading earn additional credit. Jointless legs, uncertain pedal engagement and unclear seated support keep the central action only partially resolved; shallow space and simple materials further limit the illustration.
GPT-6.1 Terra
A coherent pelican cyclist with expressive proportions, purposeful feather detail and developed bicycle machinery. Continuous body contours, aligned wheels and readable pedal contacts support the scene. Simplified articulation, shallow modelling and an unresolved steering connection limit construction and placement.
