Hi Devin.
Kodp is great but hard to get into, hence why I did a podcast on the
subject, however there is a lot more out there for the Iphone using text if
you specifically wanted something with a braille display.
The tactical rpg adventure to fate battle arena, the strategical star
traders elite, both A dark room and The ensign, not to mention all the Cog
and Hg games (which I personally always found far more interesting than bog
standard interactive fiction).
Then there are mmorpgs like Solara and Turf wars.
Heck, you could even play games like lost cities, trivia crack or some of
the kid friendly games sinse they mostly use text for the cards and what
not, though obviously the Kid friendly audiogames, as well as games like
pappasangre or the inquisitor you'd need your earbuds.
So, lots of choice.
Personally, I've never actually bothered with Frotz on the Iphone, sinse
even though I have played some good if games in the past, as I've said I
didn't find the guess the verb object manipulation did it for me, not like
gamebooks like the Cog and hg ones,plus of course, on the Iphone I prefer
Ios games rather than just what I have on my pc.
Beware the grue!
Dark.

Thanks for the suggestion. Yeah, I have Frotz, but have never quite found
a
game for that system that really interested me. Ah well, I'll maybe get
KODP again, because that was always fun.

Hi Devin.
I haven't played muds in braille, but the problem would be reading
incoming
text in real time, sinse some muds like Alteraeon Aardwolf and Cyber
assault
go very ast, and even those that don't such as Wayfar1444 still require
you
to keep up with the text, (doubly difficult in braille I should imagine
on
a
moving bus).
I'd personally suggest if you want to play games in braille, you look at
Iphone text games with a turn based element, such as some of the Cog or
Hg
games (which are great for busses and trains, or one of the more complex
rpgs such as adventure to fate battle arena, king of dragon pass or star
traders elite.
Alternatively, just invest in a pair of earbuds. This is what I use
myself
on trains etc. Indeed, I'm soon gong to have about a twelve hour flight
over
to America for Christmas and definitely plan to take my Iphone with me,

I'm considering reserving one of the longer Cog titles just for then such
as
tinstar, kendric stone or petal throne.
Beware the grue!
