"We have seen a huge spike in users," Doug Davison, the president and owner of Smiteworks USA, which created Fantasy Grounds, tells SYFY WIRE. "It's becoming a mandatory thing where that's the only way people can still get together and game."


Davison estimates a spike of "about tenfold," as 6,000 or 7,000 new users signed up for Fantasy Grounds in the past couple of days before our conversation last Thursday. ...


Not anything particularly new or surprising, but nice to see Doug and FG getting some more mainstream media attention.

Really cool, thanks for sharing!

I'm glad they aren't just covering Roll20.
