Hi all, These days I am always iether giving computer programs, i.e games or applications, or CD's as presents to other blind friends, and am getting them in return. My brother gets all these cool things like an Atari, electronic hand-held Sudoku, or these other hand-held games. This year I really want to find different ideas. Are their any accessible electronic games out their, or a game which can be accessible? I remember with the tamagochi craze, their were some of them that were actually quite accessible because of the many sounds, it was just a case of you remembering the menues, and the interface was simple. what Another example is, one year, my parents found this cool, fully-accessible talking battleship electronic game, which you can play against people and against the built-in computer, and sighted people even enjoyed it, since it was so hi-tech, had flashing lights and made many sounds, especially explosions! Even when their weren't people to play against, I loved carrying it around and having games against the computer. I found a thing on maxi aids, which said it was a Talking Chess Computer, but when I emailed, they said it wasn't really accessible for totally blind players. My friend also tried one, but she couldn't use it since the computer's move only flashed on the display and was not spoken. I also love fun puzzels and gadgets that do interesting things, and can keep a person either busy or entertained, but can anyone recommend something that they enjoy doing, and that can be bought from Amazon or somewhere online? Of course you get traditional bord games, which are made accessible for blind people, but that's not so cool since you can't play against a computer when noone's their. I also heard of a talking, electronic Bop It, which is supposed to be fun, but has anybody tried this, and where could I buy it? Ari
