Zack,
Jude Dashiell says there're games out there. I just don't understand how
and where. Perhaps he'll explain it again???

Subject: Re: Accessible games in the Mac App Store
Hi,
Are you thinking of maccessibility.net? They're still around, as far as I
know. Their podcasts have made for very interesting listening over the
past while.
I agree, a compendium of accessible games for the Mac would be very nice.
There are quite a few for the iPhone, but the closest thing to a
compendium for the Mac I know if is the Mac section of www.pcsgames.net.
THere is, naturally, a much larger Windows section.
Unfortunately, my own search for accessible games for Mac has been largely
fruitless thus far. I'll keep the list posted if I find anything.
Best,
Zack.

I like that idea. I've never been one to do games at all on my computer.
So, I haven't a clue where to even look for something that would be fun,
and accessible. I'm lousy at games of strategy like chess, but I love
games with words, riddles and things that make me think. Anyway, there
used to be accessibility.net, for iPhone games. I've not checked it out
and don't know if it's being kept up or would be a starting place.
If you do decide to do something, I'd be glad to help in any way
necessary. I love researching stuff.
Keep me posted
Carolyn

Hi, all,
i just found an accessible game in the Mac app store. It's called Piano
Game X and I believe it's $1.99 US. I accidentally discovered by
pressing the spacebar when first starting the game that it activated the
menus. It's a Simon-like game. It also has a keyboard to play for free
style, but there is only one full octave.
Anyhow, has anyone else discovered accessible games in the Mac app
store? I've bought a few, only to discover that they weren't. Has anyone
heard of someone getting together a compendium of accessible games? I
think, as someone mentioned earlier, that it would be neat for AppleVis
to have a desktop section. Barring that, I'd be willing to help organize
something.
Thanks,
Teresa
