Subject: Release of Blind Gamers LAP
Hi,
Ian Humphreys from Spoonbill Software here. You are receiving this email
because you have previously requested a Blind gamers game. This is to announce
the release of Blind gamers LAP - BG LAP for short.
BG LAP is the accessible version of the game of LAP. It is suitable for both
blind and visually impaired players, and like all Spoonbill games in the Blind
gamers series, it is self-voicing.
BG LAP is played as follows. You are presented with a board of 64 tiles
arranged in 8 rows of 8 tiles each. At the start of the game all the tiles are
blank. But the computer has secretly colored each tile with one of four colors,
red, yellow, green or blue. Your task is to determine what color has been
assigned to each of the 64 tiles, accumulating as few penalty points as
possible. To help you on your way, you know the following:
<!--[if !supportLists]-->1. <!--[endif]-->There are exactly 16
tiles of each of the four colors.
<!--[if !supportLists]-->2. <!--[endif]-->The tiles of each
color form a single contiguous area of tiles joined along their edges.
You can get a hint of the colors assigned to any 2 by 2 square of tiles. A hint
will cost you 1 penalty point. You can guess the color of a blank tile. A
correct guess will reveal the color of the tile. An incorrect guess will cost
you 5 penalty points. When the colors of all the blank tiles have been
revealed, the game is over. You try to score as few penalty points as possible.
Your lowest score is always remembered in the statistics.
If you would like to try a copy of BG LAP, just reply to this email and let me
know.
If you do not want to be informed of future Blind gamers releases, let me know
and I will remove you from my mailing list.
Regards
Ian Humphreys
