Are you familiar with the dots on some pill medication organizers? Are
the dots on the game system like that? I'm not sure if it's Braille
related, but they're sure handy for independence!

The game system seems specifically designed for players that may have special
needs like customised controls and the like. The information on the web site
says that the circuit boards have modification instruction silk screened onto
them.
I found some tactile markings that I would guess are some kind of braille
labeling but since I don't know braille I can't tell you what they say. There's
probably more information on their web site.

Does Truman games and system cater specifically to blind players, or is
it just a general gaming company?

If those games were meant to be played in a specific order, the cartridge
bags could have been labeled sequentially with dots. One dot for the
first game; two dots for the second game, three dots for the third game,
and four dots for the fourth game and so on. On Thu, 8 Jan 2026, Gene

Well, the package from Truman games arrived today! I went ahead and opened it
up just to give everything a quick inspection to make sure it all survived
being shipped.
Inside the box I found five smaller boxes which were the five game cartridges.
Also in the box was the game unit itself wrapped in a bubble wrap bag, On quick
inspection I found four buttons in the middle of the front, a USB-C charging
port and I believe a headphone jack on the left, a large square opening for the
cartridges and something else that was covered with masking tape on the right
side. For now I left the masking tape in place until I know what that is about.
And lastly, there was a charging cord floating around in the box. Andunderneath
it all was some papers I suspect is the manual. There isn't much to it so I am
thinking that there isn't much to learn before I can begin playing one of the
games. One thing I will need to figure out before I begin playing, are each of
the games like a chapter in a book so there is a prefered order I should play
the games in.
I put everything back in the box and set it aside until this weekend. Right now
I am busy with another project. Stay tuned, more later on.
