It would help if you saved the getgames.sh script from this message. It'll be between the two cut here lines. What it does is to use rsync to download the whole ifarchive game set and keep it up to date when run again. It makes an ifarchive folder tree in your user directory and under the ifarchive folder in the starters folder will be found software to play these games. You'll need to wait a while wile the whole 4gb+ archive is downloaded at first but future updates only download changed or new material so they'll be shorter. This was shared on the speakup mailing list and works on the mac too.
cut here:

#!/bin/bash
rsync -rlptDv --bwlimit=0 --timeout=300 --partial --delete \
ibiblio.org::pub/docs/interactive-fiction/ ~/ifarchive

Hi Ed:
Welcome.  You may want to check out maccessibility.net, and I think another 
possibility is applevis.com

Hello my name is Ed,

I got a macbook pro not to long ago. I was wondering if you guys could help me 
find some good accessible games for the Mac. I came from a windowsbackground 
and I can't seem to find any blind accessible games for the mac in searches.

Thank in advance ED
