Hi.
I got it installed. I played blackjack a little. I notice major
sluggishness on my iPod touch 4g. Other than that it seems like it works
well. I'll be messing around with it more tomorrow. I'm about to fall
asleep over here

Hey, Everybody.
The app is in the app store and the great thing about the app IT IS FREE!
The name of the app is call De Steno Games and here is the description
of the app.
This app has six classic text games with sounds and music, and it is
fully accessible with Voice Over. The six games were originally
developed by Richard L. De Steno, and were very popular with people
who were blind or had low vision back in the 90's. A blind person
would use a screen reader, which is a piece of software that allowed a
person who was blind or had low vision to play these games just like a
sighted person. Here is a description of the six games.
1. Atlantic City Blackjack: This game of blackjack is played by the
rules set by the NJ Casino Commission.
2: Casino: This game has a selection of four games which are
blackjack, slot machine, flash poker, and minibaccart.
3. Dodge City Desperados: You are the sheriff of the wild west town of
Dodge City. Your mission, take out the Desperado Brothers before they
take you out.
4. Destination Mars: In this game you will be taking a 35 million mile
trip from the Earth to Mars, but it won't be easy. You will encounter
different obstacles on this journey. Good luck space pilot
5. Run for President: Ever wanted to be president? Well, in this game
you are a candidate running around the United States on a Monopoly
style board in a bid to beat the computer and become president of the
United States of America.
6. Sounds Like: In this word game, you must try to figure out the
hidden word from the clues that are given.
Notes:
- Turn on Voice Over before playing the games. It will read the screen
changes automatically.
- This app was put together by the following people: Michael Barnes,
Chaoji Li, Richard L. De Steno, Jeffrey Dawson.
So go get it and have fun!
