Hi Keith.
As Thomas said, you cant run the Mac or commodore games using a screen
reader even though there were some fantastic games written for these
platforms. All other interpreters can be found within the archive, Agility
for Windows will play AGT games, the Hugo runtime can be downloaded from the
hugo folder under programming. You will also want to check out the TADS
interpreter as well as Filfre, the latter lets you play ZCode games such as
those produced by Infocom and its accessible with screen readers.
All the best, Ibrahim.

Hi Keith.
You can play most all types of games on the PC these days, even those
written in the massively old and out-dated AGT system as there is an
interpreter for Windows. So long as there is an interpreter for your
chosen operating system then you shouldn't have any problems. I
personally play games written using TADS, Hugo, ZCode and a few using AGT
so let me know what games you had it in mind to play and I'll see what can
be done about getting them to work under Windows for you.
All the best, Ibrahim.

Hi, I've noticed that on the I F site, there are games for such systems
li,e
Commodore and Adrift. I know the Apple 2 Eamon are being worked on by
Frank
Black, but are their links on the IF site for those other
platforms/systems
for emulators or programs to play such games?
Thanks
Keith
