I think I would rather buy this line of products:

Interesting.

I'm not sure how I feel about the fact they're cardboard, though...

I would imagine the same way I feel about the tiles I have been buying from WOTC. Just fine.

It looks like Paizo may come out with something similar to Tact Tiles:

paizo.com - Paizo / Messageboards / paizo.com / Customer Service / Archives / Tact Tiles?!?!?!?

I wouldn't. Does every inn look exactly the same? Its a cool idea, but defeats the whole purpose of a whiteboard.

You may want to read their future plans. There sounds like there will, eventually, be plenty of variation.

I wonder what kind of foam they are talking about for their backing? Foam board? Sounds pretty sturdy so far, though.

Anyone know who the inventor of these is?

No one knows?

I found one article on Atomic Think Tank that was from when they first came out. The name of one of the creators is at the bottom:

The Atomic Think Tank :: View topic - mapping M&M with TACT TILES

Thanks, that might help. He does list his title as MArketing Manager so I'm not sure that's the guy.

Tact-Tiles are not produced anymore, because the company had worked with a local manufacturer that subsequently noticed that their cost assumption for what they could produce the tiles was much too low (the quality tolerance was very low, because the tiles have to intersect).

I love mine .
