Hi Shaun, I agree the best of both worlds are highbred's like Destination Mars or Dodge City Desperados precisely because they don't need lots of graphics, are fully accessible using a screen reader, and still have plenty of game sounds etc to qualify as an audio game. Interesting enough I have been doing some research in this area, and I've noticed a sighted gamer is more likely to sit down and play a game like Atlantic City Blackjack which has text on screen rather than Jim Kitchen's Blackjack which uses speech output. What I am beginning to conclude is sighted people are really put off when there is nothing on the screen to look at, they hate a black screen, but give them a bit of text to read and they'll play it.So adding text will go a long ways to giving sighted gamers something to look at instead of graphics.
Cheers!
