Hi tom.
oddly enough when i was little we used to play a game called heroes of the
maze. It was like a proto rpg, where you played knights invading a maze to
battle an ogre and win magic rings. once you defeated the ogre, you got to
play as him and hunt down other players, and for every win you got a knew
ring, with the first to three winning the game.
the board was interesting too, since rather than move set spaces, the board
had a raised maze on it, and everytime you turned a little spinner under the
board it moved the walls. Everything was tactile, so it was a very playable
game, though not designed for blind people at all. One of the tactile
elements were the dice, which had swords, shields and blanks on them, and in
combat rolling different things got wins, losses or draws, and all the
symbols were quite tactile.
If however a certain game had pictured dice, you could either A, lable them
with something noticeable, ---- eg, s for sword, k for skull, or B, use a
standard dice and draw up a result table, though that would naturally be
more trouble since you'd need to look on the table yourself.
Beware the grue!
Dark.
