So we have a few of these things and I honestly fell like they're critically under utilized for what they are. You can see the mini figure display space, the stand and folding wings come out leaving a sizable storage area, and the lid also opens to enough storage for all the parts in each set. The top of the lid is an ordinary 8x8 flat round corner.

Obviously, these would be great travel cases for Lego D&D Minifigs, with your fig, main equipment, and what not with the back space used for other equipment or cosmetics. That said, I really want to find a game that uses the building aspect of Lego and can be stored in these containers.

The best I've come up with would be some variation of Goh that uses smooth tiles? Maybe some sort of chess game? Any ideas would be appreciated, I've been wracking my brain on this for weeks

hummm, I would try card games? Exploding Kittens perhaps? Or Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza?

It doesn't seem like the cards will fit in the container, or is there some way to translate those two to Lego brick?

Ah, right...the container is pretty small. hmmmmm.........

The big issue in running into is that I can utilize the space but not for a game or I can make it a game but I won't use much of the space.

200 Lego studs on an 8x8 grid is more than enough to play goh, but it well barely fill the small cavity. I can make a chess like game, but it won't fill the main cavity. I can fill both with a small set of legos, but there's not a lot of potential for structured play outside of a race to build.
