I remember that puzzle too! When I was a kid I had one, but sometimes the numbers would come out of the puzzle! I put dymotape on them, or something like dymotape, for the braille numbers. ZIi'm so glad they came out with that. It is funny how such a simple game can be so much fun, and be challenging at the same time. Glenna Glenna Burgess

Haven't seen one of those in many moons. When i was good, and she was in the right mood My grandmother used to give me one of those 15 number block puzzles . I used to take them for granted! I remember having to put a little Vaseline in the blank spot to make the squares slide around more easily; you see, sometimes the red and white numbered squares got stuck. Ah, The joys of a pre-video games childhood! .

You are receiving this email because you have previously requested a Blind gamers game. This is to announce the release of Blind gamers 15 Puzzle - BG 15 Puzzle for short. > > BG 15 puzzle is the accessible version of the famous sliding block puzzle made popular by Sam Loyd, arguably America's greatest puzzlist. It is suitable for both blind and visually impaired players, and like all Spoonbill games in the Blind gamers series, it is self-voicing. > > BG 15 puzzle is played as follows. You have 15 blocks or tiles, each labelled with a number from 1 through 15, arranged in a 4 by 4 square. The sixteenth position is empty but can be used to slide an adjacent tile into. At the start of the game, the tiles are shuffled in random order and it is your job to rearrange them into ascending or from 1 to 15, finishing with the empty position in the bottom right hand corner. The less moves you take, the higher your score. Your high score is remembered and replaced should you get a higher score in subsequent games. > > If you would like to try a copy of BG 15 Puzzle, just reply to this email and let me know. > > If you do not want to be informed of future Blind gamers releases, let me know and I will remove you from my mailing list. > > Regards > > Ian Humphreys > > Spoonbill Software > > Albany, Western Australia. > > > [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] > > > > to leave send a blank Email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > You can contact the list owners/moderators by Emailing [EMAIL PROTECTED] > to go nomail send a blank message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > change "nomail" to "normal" to resume messages. > Yahoo!
