I checked out the site and saw that there are different versions, some to print yourself and some that come ready to use. Is anyone using both, and how compatible are they?
Or would there be a way to get PDFs of the "ready to use" as well? The site is a bit confusing to me.
Also, for someone with fine motor skills issues like me, would it even make sense to try? I'm the type of person having issues with Legos because I can't get a good grip on the smaller parts and my fingers cramp up using a knife too long.
WorldWorks games makes some beautiful print and build terrain. With their Terraclips line, they have branched off into pre-printed, precut and ready to build.
The print and build terrain is easy to create, but there are a lot of parts that might be difficult to do if you have issues with fine motor skills. Printing is the easy part, then comes the cutting, which can be long and time consuming if you have issues, after that comes the assembly which will require folding and creasing paper, gluing and putting together. Depending on what you feel comfortable with it can be difficult.
However, I've seen that some of their models have been converted/templated to use the motorized Craft Paper Cutters such as those by Craft ROBO. So you can eliminate the cutting part which is usually the most time consuming and tedious. You will have to ask to see which have been templated in this way, as I'm not sure all of their models have been set to do this.
Their pre-printed ready to assemble line is beautiful. It is designed with the same care to textures, but is printed in precut boardgame style cardstock. It is very similar in build/feel to the Dungeon Tiles. Assembly is actually rather easy, as all it requires if placing "clips" between the pieces that will join. This is more expensive than the print and cut, but will save you time, and your sanity if you have fine motor skills issues.
There are no print and cut equivalents of the physical product, that is an exclusive line. However, any of the print and cut materials can be placed side by side with the physical product and not look out of place. They place a great amount of pride in providing a superb product in all aspects, and their textures are top notch. They are also a very small company with great people, a great community, and great customer service.
I would highly recommend any product from WorldWorks Games. I've been a customer since they started. If you have questions about any particular product feel free to drop by
their forums. You will definitely get your questions answered.
