1. A touch-capacitive surface system in a play environment, comprising:
a plurality of touch surfaces positioned along a target body, wherein:
each of the plurality of touch surfaces comprises:
a conductive drywall anchor secured to the target body; and
a capacitive surface comprising a conductive coating, wherein the conductive coating substantially covers the conductive drywall anchor; and
the target body comprises a stationary structure in the play environment;
a touch controller electrically coupled to the conductive drywall anchor of the plurality of touch surfaces, wherein the touch controller is configured to detect a touch from a particular touch surface of the plurality of touch surfaces;
a projection source; and
at least one computing device in communication with the touch controller and the projection source, the at least one computing device being configured to generate, via the projection source, projected content at least partially onto the target body in response to the touch controller detecting the touch from the particular touch surface.
