Point Potential Scanner at anything. Your friend, your cat, a teaspoon, a bowl of ramen — it "measures" a hidden power level, brands it with a type, and adds an oddly convincing comment. Save each result as a card, give it a name, and build your own deck. Then settle who's actually stronger. FEATURES • Scan with the camera, or pick any image from your photo library • An absurd-but-plausible power, type, and comment every time • Randomly assigned from one shared pool of 108 types • Save results as cards and browse your collection • Solo Battle: pit two of your own cards against each other • Nearby Battle: face someone's card device-to-device — no internet, no account • Nearby Card Trade: swap cards with whoever's next to you • Hidden type matchups can flip a battle even against a higher power • Save any card or battle result as an image to your Photos • Battle records and per-card win/loss • Fully offline. No accounts, no ads, no tracking. Everything stays on your device. It's a toy. The results have no scientific basis — but what are you gonna do about it? Available in 한국어, English, and 日本語.
