I guess I'm not the target audience, but I don't see the appeal of skeuomorphism here over something like on-the-fly zone creation tools. Can someone help me understand the market here? I've know that the first thing dice rollers seem to grow is 3D simulated dice, so clearly the market is there. But this would be (for me) replacing an assortment of wood blocks, lego minifigs, scribbled-on index cards, and assorted to…
You never build anything too crazy in real life, because it requires a lot of setup during and between games. It's just not worth it.
In digital form, you can afford to prepare big 3d maps outside of the game, and you can even share the environment you've created with other people outside your game so that they use it in their own game.
