Hi dark, I'm sure you can get your Apple situation sorted out. As for talking to the developer, good luck, I haven't wanted to try that myself. On the plus side, I can heartily recommend King of Dragon Pass Pass. There have been several updates recently which fixed all the accessibility problems mentioned in its database entry, in fact I think it might be time to update it. I can now say that it is 100% playable by us, with none of the weird quirks we used to experience. Yours, Zack.

Actually accessible. It has much information presented only graphically, and has not been updated in quite sometime. I'm afraid we have to write off the chances of it becoming more accessible for the moment. My understanding was that some trouble came up with the developer, and he no longer wish to continue work on the project. >> Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, >> Zack. >> >> Sent from my iPhone >> >> On Nov 14, 2012, at 12:41 PM, "dark" <d...@xgam.org> wrote: >> >>> ah, good news! i've fancied dragon pass for a long while now, it'll be fantastic to finally give it a go. >>> >>> Does anyone actually know about silver sword?

In general it's not specifically simple games I'm looking for so much as games with a simple interface which isn't necessarily the same thing, indeed a game like ashes of angels has a relatively simple interface in terms of controls and such despite being a fairly complex game in it's own right. >>>>> >>>>> Beware the Grue! >>>>> dark. >>>>> ----- Original Message ----- From: "Fred Olver" <goodfo...@charter.net> >>>>> To: "Gamers Discussion list" <gamers@audyssey.org> >>>>> Sent: Wednesday, November 14, 2012 12:30 PM >>>>> Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Silver sword and other ios games for access? >>>>> >>>>> >>>>>> Hi Dark, >>>>>> >>>>>> I have downloaded many games for the Iphone and recommend one called Dimentions, or maybe that is an S rather than a t.
