Virtual Gaming and David Hemenway

 

Virtual Tabletop Gaming : Review by Eternity Gaming

If you haven’t tried it yet, now is a great time to look into virtual tabletop gaming. Even when your gaming group is available to play in your area, gaming online saves drive time. Plus, during the holiday season, you can play with friends and family, without the travel. Though it can be hard to beat the advantages (and fun) of seeing someone face-to-face for your TTRPG night, technology is helping us all get a little more RPG in our lives.



Fantasy City

We bring up virtual tabletop gaming because one of our great artists, David Hemenway (more on him, below), has a host of graphics and assets that are a perfect fit for online play. His Fantasy City set enables game masters to create custom towns for your RPG. The digital set comes with assets for buildings, roofs, chimneys, awnings, signs, bushes, streets... and really everything you need for the PC’s “home base.”


The great thing about David’s work is the custom factor. There are still versions of it out today, but there was a game for PS1 called “RPG Maker.” In that game – as the title suggests - you could design your own RPG. Then, you could invite your friends over and make them fight their way through the dungeons you created. Between quests, they could then get better gear, get instructions, and find rest in the towns you made.


Fantasy City, and its expansion sets, bring a level of new creative ability to your tabletop gaming sessions. Of course, you can always play using your own imagination and theater of the mind. But when you have access to graphics, especially during online play, why not build the town you’ve always imagined for your group? For those who love building worlds for your friends to adventure in, you need the flexibility to create towns the way you see them – not just stock images created by another map designer.

David’s products provide more asset options than you could ever find on any virtual gaming platform. Many have over 400 graphics. They can be mixed and matched, overlayed, and as mentioned above, used for custom – whatever you need. Virtually anything you can come up with as a setting for your game, you can find with us.
