Hello folks, Some might remember my post a few days ago about blind playing of Dungeons & Dragons.
It got a mention on the community news for October, and there has been some discussion with Klaatu about an episode or two on this subject. I was sitting here by my PC during the night just gone by, listening to the election results, and trying to get together ideas for an audible poly dice roller for the ESP8266 nodemcu microcontroller. I got the design together, but in a spare minute I checked the IOS app store, and found a totally accessible app called 'Natural 20 Lite'. It will 'roll' D4, D6, D8, D10, D12, D20 and D100. A D100 is usually made by rolling a D10 twice, once for tens and once for units. Zeros on both rolls is 100. With the VoiceOver screen reader on, on any IOS device, iPhone or iPad, it will audibly speak the result of any roll. I have no idea whether the app is also available for Android. It's a brilliant little app, and means I can roll any of the dice needed to play D&D. The app store said 'in app purchases', but I have not seen anything pop up yet that is annoying.
