Wow, this looks really cool, always asuming I can remember the right
sequence under pressure. :) Could someone perhaps enlighten me as to
what the visuals are like in the game? I'm just wondering if it gives
the sighted player any advantages over us blind players, or if the
graphics are more like scenery.
Thanks from Lori.

The game has received pretty good reviews, and it has been rated as
fully accessible in AppleVis. It is so, that the game was designed
first as an audiogame, so we could be sure it was playable using sound
as main sound mechanics. This after, we added some simple but actually
quite nice looking visuals, so also sighted people could play it. We
really believe that playing videogames should be a universal right,
and that everybody should be able to play and to talk about the same
game independently of the eye condition.
In this first game, AudioWizards

there have been involved 50 blind persons from all around the world.
Nine composed the music, one designed part of the special sound
effects, one was voice actor, and four were beta-testers since the
first version. All of them have received an economic compensation for
their work and effort. The rest of those friends helped us selflessly,
and so we send our best regards once more to all of them. In addition,
in these two years we have received a lot of support and very kind
words, especially in the audiogame forums, and so we have enough proof
that I have to keep working in what we believe we have to. Our goal is
not only to provide you with fantastic games, but also proof that
there are a lot of talented blind people who could work in the gaming
or audiovisual industries as sound technicians, musicians, producers,
mixers and sound developers, but also as programmers, data analyst,
marketing staff, game designers, scriptwriters, translators, voice
actors, etc etc.
If you are not sure if this game is for you or not, we have prepared a
bunch of videos in our Youtube channel, so you can check the game and
its quality before you buy it. For instance, there is a trailer with
audio description, and a How to Play video. Here those two links

One more thing. If you like the game, please, share your enthusiasm
with your friends. That will help us like a lot!
Regards,
myTrueSound and the AudioWizards Dev Team
