Hey all, Well, Lisa may have a point here. I'm trying to find more info on this, but http://www.vlfgames.com is a site that is trying to promote accessibility in games for everyone. In one of the posts up there, Daniel mentions that he partnered with Big Fish. Whether this partnership resulted in anything remains to be scene. I'd love to play some of these games I found here. I'm just not sure it's possible. Some are point and click, but those interfaces are problimatic at best.
