[Audyssey] Magic the Gathering IPad app
Hello, Has anyone tried the Magic the Gathering application for the IPad? https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/magic-2015/id672924134?mt=8 I am wondering if it is accessible or not. I will download later today to give it a run through myself, but thought I'd see if anyone here has tried it out yet.

Re: [Audyssey] Magic: the Gathering
All the trading card games sims I've found have been rather heavily flash or java based, and very obviously graphical. A lot of them are built with direct immage scans so its highly unlike that unless it was done with spacific intent for the blind that anyone would program in text versions of all the cards since the cards text could be read directly from the immage. I'd love to find an online accessible trading card game though, but I think it'll have to be created rather than found. -- From: Kelby Carlson kelbycarl...@usfamily.net Sent: Tuesday, August 11, 2009 6:47 AM To: gamers@audyssey.org Subject: [Audyssey] Magic: the Gathering Hi everyone.

Re: [Audyssey] Magic: the Gathering
Hi, Very true. Most card games even your poker games use scanned images of playing cards. The rule of thumb is if the developer doesn't have a physical disability he or she isn't going to give a second thought to accessibility unless someone can convince them otherwise. The sad truth is a lot of sighted people aren't even aware a blind person can operate a computer let alone play games. Smile.

Re: [Audyssey] Magic: the Gathering
Hi, If it is written in C++ you are basically screwed. C++ applications are operating system specific, and have to be compiled specifically for the platform you intend to run it on. So you will need the source code, and will probably have to modify it some to support Linux development libraries. About the only suggestion I have is try and run the program using a Windows emulator such as wine. It may work, but then you are going to use a lot of valuable CPU and memory running the extra emulation layer on your system. I can say from firsthand experience running apps via wine sucks.

Hi all, Has anyone on here had an enjoyable time playing Magic? I know very little about the game, other than it is a strategy game involving cards, and you apparently need to keep adding to your card collection. Are people Brailing their own cards, or is there an online version that is accessible? Some people I hang out with get into this game, so thought I'd start researching it a little. Thanks for any advice you can give, Jake ___ Gamers mailing list ..

Re: [Audyssey] Magic the gathering
Its a pretty old game, much like Yu-Gi-Oh or any of the other trading card games out there, with its own unique set of rules and cards. As far as I know there's no acessible online version of the game, and brailing the cards is pretty much out of the question, since it ruins the collectors value and makes them impossible to trade, since you'll likely braille over the text or the picture or something. My cousin used to play it a long time ago, but he never really showed me the rules of the game. I've always thought it'd be interesting to try though. I have played Yu-Gi-Oh and the Pokemon trading card game, with sighted help. Basically you have to modify the rules a little and do either one of two things. Here's how I played Yu-Gi-Oh. I either, A, put a lot of trust in the person I was playing with and we both showed eachother our hands, so we knew who had what cards. Takes a bit of the strategy out of the game and some of the suspense, but you can still play. The other way to play Yu-Gi-Oh is partner matches, which the game is actually set up for. In this way you basically have a sighted partner tell you your hand and strategize with your partner to beat down your opponent or opponents. There's some online rules somewhere I'm sure, look them up if you want more info. ___ Gamers mailing list ..
