If we weren't in the middle of one pandemic, we could indulge in moralism about this product. But now it's easy to see why the Infinity Game Table it is a success on the Kickstarter crowdfunding platform.
What is Infinity Game Table? It is essentially a table equipped with an HD touch screen and robust connectivity. Nothing else? And that's not much! And in any case in these cases the software can also make the difference.
And the developers (the company Arcade1up) have licensed a number of the most popular board games. Scrabble, Monopoly, Trivial Pursuit, Battleship, etc., for a total of over 50 games) and they programmed them all into the Infinity Game Table.
I would have killed, or given a kidney (from a random cousin of mine) for something like that.
Games in contact
As mentioned, on a conceptual level, board games offer simple and tactile family entertainment without the need for electricity and would not require technological updates. BUT. BUT.
However, the beauty of the Infinity Game Table is that the device obviously works in connection with the Internet. This means that in the age of social distancing, you can now play Scrabble (or whatever) with family members spread across the world.
It will not be easy, however, to end up in prison (and without passing away) the uncle who lives in Canada: he too should have an Infinity Game Table.
And the units, even if they are selling like hot cakes, are not exactly cheap. On Kickstarter the pre-order price is no less than 500 euros. This means that to play a cheerful game of Monopoly between 6 people who live in different houses you need 3000 euros on the nail. You said pork rinds.
