The students at Carnegie Mellon University have shown the version of Dungeons & Dragons which operates of the Microsoft Surface multi touch platform. Though this student project is not a professional development but it does indicate about the level of innovation.
The students at this project have taken the advantage from the ability of the surface which can recognize little tags and allows the control token to place your inventory and action whenever it is convenient. The game will also keep the track of the guy even if he has to move out from there. The Surfaceescapes is the proof of the concept which uses the Microsoft Table to play D&D.
The players attach the physical pieces to the virtual space that includes all the zoom interactions and the cool drag. The calculations are done automatically and the battles are animated with the creature that are intelligent enough to detect the players on the map while moving.
