I think that's a great idea. I love Jim Kitchens games in that aspect.

Subject: [Audyssey] Reading instructions in game?
Just something random which has occurred to me.
As I've been reinstalling all my audiogames on my desktop, many of which i
haven't played for a while, I've had to reread the documentation again,
often just to refresh my mind about a couple of things.
It's really great that some games have the ability to read or check
documentation, either by a short audio menue of keystrokes, or the ability
to just display docs on screen, so that I can flick Hal's voice and keys
back on and read through them.
I know people usually completely unload jaws before playing games, but I
assume it's relatively symple to flick the program on or off depending
upon what you want to read in the game? in which case, it'd be great if
this feature was more possible in games, ---- particularly complex games
which rely heavily on in many keystrokes, or on a textual description of a
complex environmnet.
I'm thinking particularly here of some of the Draconis games, ----- the
pinball ones in particular, sinse you really do need to read the table
descriptions before playing each table.
of course the ideal would be to have the explanations of environmnet done
some how in game, to preserve atmosphere, but often this isn't always
possible.
hmmm, maybe I'll think about an artical for audeasy on this.
So, what do people think?
Beware the Grue!
Dark.
