This research is motivated by the rapid growth of the game industry in Indonesia and the need for interactive simulation systems based on Artificial Intelligence (AI). This study aims to develop a food court management simulation game by implementing NavMesh based on the A* algorithm for character navigation, as well as Finite State Machine (FSM) and smart reading to regulate the behavior of Non-Player Characters (NPCs). The method used is the Game Development Life Cycle (GDLC), which includes the stages of concept, design, development, and evaluation. The results show that the developed system is capable of producing an intuitive user interface and an interactive 3D environment. In addition, NPCs, such as customers, waiters, and cleaning staff, are able to behave adaptively according to environmental conditions. The testing results indicate that the system operates well structurally and functionally and is responsive across various Android devices. The implementation of AI methods in the developed system supports the creation of NPC interactions that adapt to the conditions of the game environment. Thus, the integration of AI methods can enhance interactivity and realism in food court management simulation games while providing users with a more dynamic gaming experience.
