Not sure how this one slipped past the radar, but it may be of interest to those of you looking at remote play. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/7732438.stm

I think its a bit pricey for what it is if they are looking to attract old school roleplayers.

Interesting stuff!

However does it really translate well to the digital world? Granted, I haven't played D&D in about fifteen years (many great memories though, and the boxes are still up in the attic), but for me part of the joy was the character sheets, the DM screen and the rolling of dice.

Looking at the video, what they seem to have done is a direct swap from board to screen, and I think that games with Warcraft may have the stolen the market.
