I don't imagine the UX of playing chess or checkers with these would be ideal—I'm sure the board would get messy right quick—but I think the trade-off would be worth it for those who don't want to haul a board and pieces around.
On Kickstarter, Hallifax was seeking $2,800 to get these into production—and at press time he'd landed $91,235, with just over a day left to pledge.
This is actually Hallifax's fourth successful Kickstarter; you can see the other three at the Kickstarter link.
