Ouch. I know some developers who are going to be unhappy with this... There's been some discussion about avoiding the "race to the bottom" that occurred with the iPhone/iPod touch and this zero-day $0.99 pricing is going to help ruin that.
That said, I was toying around with making something similar. It's even suggested as a use case in Apple's documentation for iPad developers. (Not an NDA thing anymore, it seems.) A table of pieces with no rules logic, but something more open ended. Looks like no point in supporting standard playing cards as part of it, since this app likely has that part covered.
EDIT: Just noticed eob's comment; custom pieces were what I was shooting for (sort of like a card equivalent to MotionX's former Dice Plus app), though with a more practical bent.
