The Tower

The Tower is a tabletop game concept inspired by the card game Memory and S.V. Lukyanenko’s «Draft» book series. The core mechanic involves collecting a deck of specific card pairs by finding matches by flipping over face-down cards laid out on the table.

This project demonstrates how AI interprets my concept.

AI services used in the project:

1. DeepAi (chatbot);
2. Ideogram (image generation);
3. Pixart (image editing).

Prompt for chatbot:

generate a prompt for a logo of a memory-inspired deck-building fantasy card game where players create their own worlds by collecting pairs of cards featuring landscapes, fantasy animals, and magical plants.
