Anyone Can Play:
Accessible Games for the iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch,
edited by Judith Dixon, $12.00 USD
with contributions by Nallym Bravo, Ciaran and Coal Corby, Judy Dixon,
Janet Ingber, and Atty Svendsen.
Not long ago, the only games available to a braille reader were a deck
of braille cards and a few expensive board games. Gloriously, the
iPhone has brought
us all manner of portable accessible diversions - from word puzzles to
fantasy adventures. And anyone can play, no experience required! A
host of blind
gamers have put together their favorite accessible iDevice game apps;
they tell you how they work and what it takes to win!
The book is divided into seven chapters:
1. Competitive Games: This chapter describes the Game Center that can
be found on every iDevice and a few games that can be played against
others through
the Game Center.
2. Word Games: These are games based on words or letters. It features
games that provide clues to either guess or construct the word.
3. Card Games: These are mostly traditional card games, ranging from
many types of solitaire games to multiplayer games. In the multiplayer
games, the game
can simulate opponents, or you can play against real opponents.
4. Adventure Games: These are games where the player is presented with
a scenario and can interact with the world by issuing commands or by
making choices.
5. Strategy Games: For the most part, these are traditional puzzles
and board games requiring a strategic approach to accomplish the
object of the game.
6. Role-Playing Games: In these games, the player chooses a character
with certain traits. The player communicates with others assuming the
traits of the
chosen character.
7. Sports Games: These are action games, many of which will have you
out of your chair and moving around to play the game as a single
player or against
an opponent.
