Trading or collectible card games that have cards that modify themselves with play would be great here. SolForge is the example I'm thinking of, but I'm sure other games do it too.

I was thinking trading cards too, but thinking of specifically trading them.
I wasn't really watching the images in the demo video, so at first I though he was transferring one image to another. This made me think it would be really cool if there were exactly one way to get a new image on your card: put it on a device that swaps two cards. You'd get a new image, but they'd lose theirs. So you'd actually have to commit to trading.
I guess that sounds a little like NFTs, but hopefully without the douchey scamminess.
That't a neat idea. I was thinking of genetic algorithms for 'breeding' cards, and maybe AI image synthesis for the pictures?
I thought it'd be so cool if all the cards from one town look one way, and they're different the next state over. So when you go on a school trip, you can pick up cards not available in your area.
I mean CCG is kinda the original MFT scam. Look at how MtGox got started.
And baseball cards predate that

Yeah! I'm thinking a mixture of Magic the Gathering and Tamagotchi. Where the cards can level and grow like an RPG.
I'm imagining someone casting a spell on another player and the cards in their hand change without them realizing right away. That would really add to the magical feeling of the game.
So cool! I love it!
Have a look at https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/194607/mystic-vale where cards grow during the game. It's implemented physically.
> Mystic Vale uses the innovative "Card Crafting System", which lets you not only build your deck, but build the individual cards in your deck, customizing each card's abilities to exactly the strategy you want to follow.
You would probably want to go with fewer cards. But something like a deck builder could work.
I've got the starter set sitting at home :D Haven't played it yet, but wanted to check it out.

It would let you make a real version of Inscryption under any of the different game varieties
RIP Solforge. That was my favorite digital card game before it crashed and burned, then resurrected and finally fizzled out.
