Games For The Blind
Web site - Games For The Blind
Description - Accessible Games SV are designed specifically for visually impaired and blind computer users. I am totally blind and wrote these games myself. This allows me to be very confident to say, that these games are accessible to all, especially those of us with vision loss. I enjoy playing these games myself, so if a totally blind dummy like me can play them, you will surely be able to enjoy them too. The initials SV represent the words "Self Voicing." Self voicing is my way to tell the user that the game can speak with no other software or hardware required! If you are using a computer running Windows 95, 98, 98SE, Milineum, 2000, or XP, these games will provide a spoken interface for visually impaired and blind users. This is accomplished by including the Eloquence speech synthasizer in each game. Eloquence is considered by many to be the premier software speech synthasizer in the world.
