They can do it, though, which is my point. I cannot go into a video arcade
and play the games.
One more thing: Nice Play Room. I did find that your chess game had a bug
in it the last time I played it. If you get checkmated, you cannot make a
move even though it says that it is your turn. It did not give your
opponent the win with "checkmate!"
If you think you're finished, you! really! are! finished!!

Hello,
@Charles> Although I agree with a lot of what you point out, I have to
say that, in my opinion, audio games are totally accessible to sighted
gamers as long as they can hear.
In thoery you are perfectly right.
However, do you know any sighted person seriously playing at least one
audiogame ? beyond 5 minutes just for fun / just to show what we can do.
The fact is here: sighted people can't imagine at all playing without
visual. For many, it even make them afraid, imagining that they could
lose vision.
Only sighted people who have blind/VI in their small circle actually
accept to play games without nice graphics.
I can tell you with playroom statistics: almost 100% of the sighted
people playing on the playroom are girl/boy friend of a blind person,
very good friend, or at least very closely in contact with the blind/VI
community in general.
Since it's only text, they sometimes say well, that's excellent for you,
but me, I have to read, and that's just boring.
