Hi Jim.

at least in my case, it's not really the standard board games that bothered me. My parents brailled see how they run, the house that jack built and other games, and we regularly played life, ratrace or braille monopoly. The problem I have now is a lot of my friends play the sort of more complex type of board games aimed at adults and those interested in tabletop rp. Talisman, battle star, hero quest, not to mention the awesome atmosphere series, etc, games that verge on being an rp game, but have cards to pick up, and instructions on the board itself.

i actually once bought a second hand copy of atmosphere, but just couldn't get to brailel all the complicated instructions on the cards and squares on the board, so never got to play it much which was really irritating, sinse the atmospheric video and appearences from the games' host, the evil gate keeper was just fantastic, and added so much to the game, even though in layout and rule structure I now see it wasn't too complicated, despite having a lot of text.

Beware the grue!

Dark.
