Kuai Kuai (乖乖) is a popular Taiwanese snack brand best known for its green-packaged coconut-flavored chips. According to local belief, placing a pack of Kuai Kuai on malfunctioning technology can "make it obedient"—a nod to the snack’s name, which translates to "be obedient." Inspired by this cultural phenomenon, Just Jailbreak transforms it into an AI-powered game experience.
In the game, Just Jailbreak, players interact with JJ, a quirky character who loves to mimic various types of technology—yet consistently refuses to work as expected. JJ is a stubborn, playful entity, rarely following instructions, so players must creatively persuade it to cooperate, much like using Kuai Kuai to "calm" malfunctioning tech.
Powered by a large language model, JJ encourages players to try various "jailbreaking" techniques to coax it into compliance. Players might choose to be firm and authoritative, use a bit of mischief, offer enticing rewards, or simply shower JJ with affection. The game introduces players to the world of LLM jailbreaking, echoing the real-world experimentation where users try to bypass restrictions placed on AI chatbots by companies like OpenAI through creative text-based tactics.
Just Jailbreak invites players to experiment and find their own way to communicate with JJ, making it an engaging gateway into the culture of LLM jailbreak strategies.
