You just remind me something

You just remind me something I forgot that I did almost 20 years ago.

I had 3 hard plastic panel where you could put in 2-3 letter size pages. I stick them together with some tape and created my own customizable DM screen (the panels were verticals). I think I put some black paper on the exterior, or in between both sheets. Exterior sheet was content useful for the players.

I don't know how any GAME can afford to add this...!

At $19.99 USD for the Customizable Screen ... I can't picture anyone adding these to their game. Granted the screen is VERY cool! I'm not disputing on how amazing it is... Yet at $19.99 USD, I doubt many people will buy it unless it's maybe like some kind of ADD-ON. Like a premium screen for a game that ONLY requires one screen and not one per player.

It's a nice addition... But the cost is very HIGH. If it would have been around at $9.99 USD then I could see someone creating a PREMIUM version of their game and including four (4) of theses.

Like I said it's cool... But not practical when it comes to STANDARD games out there.

I agree, price point is going to limit some

I think it's intended for a single DM or GM to use in an RPG, so there probably is a market. You can get the same effect plus binder rings for about the same price with the tabloid 3 ring binders: https://www.officedepot.com/a/products/1388845/Office-Depot-Brand-Heavy-...

But the screen does close down for easier storage.

I agree that the tabloid size

I agree that the tabloid size is interesting. A normal binder would be too small.

An yes it is more useful for game masters. I used to play many RPG rules than D&D, and each system did not necessarily have it's screen. So my solution was perfect for such situation. I printed sheet and inserted them in it.

Some players made artwork during the game, I just inserted on the player's side of the screen.

Your missing the point

I think it's a slick idea. This 4 folded screen does not have to be used for gaming.

School work
Shopping list
Display of art or marquee
Notes
Recipes
Picture frame
Comic cells double sided

There are probably a whole ton of ideas that this product can be used for.

The price is fine.
