Hi,
Agree about the lock button or block button whatever it's saying, but the
hold buttons are above and below the wheels. You can use either one to hold
the wheel. I am also getting the vo not announcing the third wheel issue,
hope it's fixed in the next version update.

What I don't understand is why you can block (or is it lock?) left wheel but
hold the other 2. Should it not say hold left wheel also to to make it more
consistent?
I am loving the game though and hope to see it grow, I feel it would be
better if the hold buttons were below the wheels though and would like to
see nudge added too. Would love to see game centre support.
I am experiencing voice over not announcing the results of the last wheel
when the option for hold appears. Voice over seems to skip the last wheel
announcement and instead jumps directly to announcing the option to hold.
This means you have to move your finger down to feel what the last wheel
result was before deciding on which wheel to hold.

PS Nice to have a game am addicted to again, not played a game so much since
going blind a couple of years ago. Its the mindless simple games that hold
my attention. Now I just need a accessible connect 4 or othello/reverse. I
get bored easy, so bite me :)

Hi all,
thanks. I just found those buttons. For whatever reason I wasn't seeing
them last night. I heard VO speak the message, but didn't see the hold
buttons. the game makes a lot more sense now. :)
Cheers,
Donna

Hi
Yes you can spin only one wheel. As soon as 2 of the same symbol comes
up, there pops up some buttons labeled "block left reel", "hold center
reel" and "hold right reel". Find the reels that have the same symbol and
press corresponding buttons then press the start button and only one reel
will spin.
Hope this helps.

Hi Jonathan,
thanks for responding. So, I guess this is my question. Last night,
for example, there were a couple of times when I had two of the same
fruit. Is there any way to just spin the wheel that doesn't match? In
other words, is there any player involvement other than just pushing the
start button? I read the help section, but didn't find an answer to
this.
Cheers,
Donna

Hello Donna,
the game is the classic slot machine which you can find in at any
casino.
Your target is get the highest score.
there are three reels which start to spin when you press the start
button. The reels will stop after some seconds. If you have good luck,
you will get a good combination of symbols in the reels.
well, you can find a help button at left botton corner of all views in
the game. The help function gives you information about each moment of
the game
if you have any suggestion or any question, please, send me an e-Mail
Regards

OK, I don't mean to be rude, but I don't get this. downloaded the
game last night. So far as I can tell you just keep pressing the
start button and hope you get three of the same fruit? Is that all
there is to it, or am I missing something?
Cheers,
Donna

Hi there.
This is a really good game, and this comes from someone who is very,
very picky when it comes to apps and games. I don't care so much for
swiping down or shaking the phone to start, but if you add it, please
make it a togglable option so that we can play however we want. What
i would really love to see though is either an online score board or
game center implementation so we can see how we do in comparison to
others.
On a totally different and somewhat off-topic note, Jonathans game
ilustrates perfectly how one can make a mainstream gps program more
accessible. How, you wonder. Well, there is apparently a way for an
app to communicate and send specific info directly to Voiceover that
in its turn can speak that same info to us. Imagine then Navigon,
Tomtom or another gps solution send data about streets, upcoming and
current taken from the map, and there may be other things that could
be sent dynamically to VO without having to be recorded by a built-in
voice and the best thing of all, sighted people wouldn't need to know
the blind specific features were there. With an "if", "else"
statement in the code, you could query if Voiceover is on, and if it
is, enable the blind specific features and if not, use it as a normal
gps app.
Sorry for this deviation, now back to normal broadcast.

well,
You can read help about the game using the button at left bottom
corner of the screen.
This game depends on your lucky. Press the start button and cross
your fingers for a good combination.
You can play longer or shorter plays changing the number of turns
for a play. See the settings button at right bottom of the screen.
when you get an special combination of symbols, for example: the two
same symbols in a turn or an special combination of symbols you can
access for a new kind of game. Use the help button for learning
about it.
I hope it help you
