Hi Jim, That would be a good question for the rehab centers that sell the games. Perhaps contacting someone like the Cleveland Sight Center since they have a lot of those games in their Ideas Shop. I never really thought about that question much until this subject came up, and now I'd really like to know if it is the manufacturer or the rehab centers themselves that decides which games are to be made accessible.
Certainly some games like Monopoly are a given. It seems to be a game that everyone plays, just about every family owns, and is very popular. Something like the Thomas and Friends board game is designed for small kids, and wouldn't be too popular with adults.Therefore it might make sense why that game wouldn't be made accessible because the majority of people with vision related issues are over 60 where Thomas and Friends is for kids ages 3 to 6.
