Description of App
AudioGameAccess is a platform of games played entirely by ear, made for blind and visually impaired people. Sounds guide you, and VoiceOver tells you everything else.
The games:
- archery, in three levels, and bowling;
- Feather Flight, a skill game;
- card games: Ninety-nine, Crazy Eights, Golf, President, a colour card game, and a car race played with cards;
- dice games: a five-dice game, with its combinations to fill, and Farkle;
- board games: Parcheesi and Camembert Culture, a general knowledge quiz;
- Four in a Row, a puzzle game: be the first to line up four tokens in an upright grid;
- hangman, Sea Battle and a word game on a grid of letters;
- One Word, a cooperative word game online, for 3 to 8 players: each one helps a player guess a mystery word, with a single word;
- MΓ©tropole, a city-building game where you are the mayor.
Every game has its own manual, in English, French, Spanish, Italian and Portuguese.
On iPhone, two ways to play:
- with VoiceOver, the whole screen becomes the game: you play with gestures, without looking for buttons;
- without VoiceOver, real buttons, cards and dice to touch, in large text and high-contrast colours for visually impaired players.
Play with others: online, open a table, invite your friends or play against bots. Chat in writing and by voice, send private messages, keep a friends list and follow the leaderboards. A game can be saved and resumed later.
Offline, every game but One Word can be played alone or against bots, with no account.
To play online, create a free account with your email address. Other players never see it. You can block or report a player, and delete your account from the app.
3D sound on headphones places every sound around you.
