Wondering what the future holds?...

Well, there's jo substitute for fiddling around with little bits of cardboard, wood, and plastic; still, will be intersting to see how thr convergence of board gaming and digital gaming pans out in the future. On that note, this looks interesting...

I think it could be really neat, mixung cardboard and use of tablets or smartphones running board game auxilliary apps or even augmentent reality, where you can see additional (hidden to everyone else) things in the shared cardboard game world, through augmented reality view on your device.

NOTE: Anyone know how to turn on auto spelling correct checking on an iPad?

Like the idea of AR/hidden info in board games... imagine a hidden role game where the iPad can be used as a scanner to check a players side

Yeah, could be super awesome with some kind of team hidden movement game like Escape the Aliens in Outer Space.
