Re: [Audyssey] Question about Age of Fable
Orin, the hole point of age of fable is that it's A, free roaming, and B, always being added to. Try exploring the docks, exploring the city a few more times, and heading out of the city to different places and with different amounts of experience and combat skills, - I haven't even seen the cats in the keyboard quest yet, though i did get one character to amusingly go to heaven, lol! Age of fable isn't really a game with any kind of specific path or ending, just lots of random quests, a constant stream of updates, and infinite amounts of freedom. Btw, the amount the game has expanded sinse I first came across it last year is really! quite frightening. Beware the Grue!

Re: [Audyssey] Lone wolf game book help was Re: Jim's Monopoly questio n
Hi Linsy. It's actually fairly streight forward. First compare your combat skill to your enemy's (your enemy's skill will be in the text). that will tell you what colum of the combat results table to look at. So for example if your cs is 10, and your enemy's is 5, you'll be looking in the 5/6 column, whereas if your enemy's Cs was 12 and yours was 10, you'd be looking in the -1/-2 column. Then, roll your ten sided dice, using 10 for 0. this will tell you which column of the table to look at. In the column, read which row corresponds to the number you rolled (which also happens to be the number of rows down the column). This will tell you how much damage your opponent and you suffer with your opponent's damage first, so if it says 7/2, your opponent takes 7 points of damage, you take two. Stir vigorously, and repeat until one of your combatants is nicely dead! lol! Seriously, the reason combat in the lw books is like this is that originally the books were published in the 80s, and once someone got a number, all they had to do was turn to the table. it's quite possible with a screen reader though that has good table navigation and if your stuck with the html, i have a fully formatted Ms word table which one of the project.aon chaps on the message board was kind enough to whip up for me when i first came across lw in late 2005 (just before I discovered audiogames in fact), and started asking about screen reader access. Part of me does wonder now, if Tom, phil, Jim or someone else clever, with the appropriate amount of time could just whip up an lw combat program to make all this much quicker, heck, they could even have it roll the dice for you.

Re: [Audyssey] Intro
Hi Lelia, Although Shades of Doom and the Sarah game have the mark your position hot key, Pacman Talks does not. Of the three games Pacman talks is the easiest to walk through as each level has the same maze pattern. The following article written about ten years ago by my business partner shows one inexpensive way of going through a maze without need of a brailler. HINTS AND TIPS ON MAZE SOLVING Audyssey; Computer Games Accessible to the Blind Edited by Michael Feir Issue 13: July/August, 1998 by Carl Mickla at P C S There are a couple of ways to approach maze solving. Here is how I approach the puzzle. First I order a pizza from Domino's, because they have the best boxes. then I get a sheet of braille graph paper from the American Printing House for the Blind. I then place the graph paper on top of the pizza box. I secure the paper with a map tack on all for sides. I place a box of different types of map tacks in easy reach. If I know my starting X, Y, position I count blocks across for X, and then I count down blocks for Y. If I do not know where the starting position is I then place a tack in the middle of the one side on the edge. then I work the maze by keeping the wall always to my right, placing a tack where every wall is indicated. If the maze breaks off, room, hallway, and so on I only check it out if it is to my right. I never leave the maze for another level, when playing multi level games, until I know every thing in the maze. The other thing I like to do is to turn the box or map when the maze changes direction. This helps me to keep the perspective of the map the same way as I am facing, allowing for me to synchronize myself with the map. Once I have completed the maze with the wall to my right I then work the maze by keeping the wall to my left. Then I go back and hit all the areas that I have passed by. This might seem a little slow, but it works. Every time I start getting tired, I just open the box and grab a slice! and keep going. I once played a Dungeons and Dragons game called Wizardry. There was an area in the dungeon where light would not work. Using the method described earlier I was able to navigate and solve the whole mapping puzzle. I do very strongly suggest using graph paper. After all the first mazes used on computers were not graphical and you had to use paper to solve them. Now the game creators do not want to make there games to tough and draw the mazes out for the players. I think this is wrong, because many people playing maze games are not getting the full challenge of solving mazes and the opportunity to sharpen map puzzle solving skills. If the maze goes beyond the sheet of graph paper, call Domino's and order another pie! So do not shy away from tough maze puzzles. Get some braille graph paper, map tacks, and call Domino's. Remember It is the box you want, not the snack inside! - Original Message - From: "lelia" To: "Gamers Discussion list" Sent: Monday, December 15, 2008 4:09 PM Subject: [Audyssey] Intro Hi my name is Lelia and I'm just getting started getting in to games. one thing I'm kind of finding out is that I'm not good at going through mazes.

You can actually run the games without installing the Winkit file. I used to do that all the time before I realized that the Winkit file actually organizes the games into a workable order.

Re: [Audyssey] Jim's Monopoly question
Hi Jim. It's just a personal thing probably, but I do like reviewing boards etc, and I wasn't thinking in terms of real time play over Skype or chatrooms, but play by mail, forum etc. As to the links on audiogames.net, each entry does have a link directly to your homepage, I've also included text about and a link to download the winkit file on all the game pages, so hopefully people shouldn't get too confused. The other nice point, is that with the new favourites system, people can add your games, - or anyone elses to their favourites list, and the list of who favourited what appears at the bottom of each page as a sort of popularity wrating system.

Re: [Audyssey] preferred Game genres was: Question about BG gamesproduced by Ian Humphreys.
Ah yes, I remember that. You'd PM'ed me on the Sryth forum if I'm not mistaken, after I replied to your post about Gamefaqs. - Original Message - From: "dark" To: "Gamers Discussion list" Sent: Tuesday, December 16, 2008 12:10 AM Subject: [Audyssey] preferred Game genres was: Question about BG gamesproduced by Ian Humphreys. Hi Bryan. Funnily enough that was exactly my thought when you pointed me in the direction of audiogames in late 2005. I was however pleased to find game genres such as 3D fps which I couldn't play graphically with my level of sight. then though, I started my big try through of audio games, and sinse that year I wasn't doing any work so had lots of money bought various titles to try. i remember having a bit of a guilt trip when I bought hunter, hinking "why am I spending money on this type of game when I've already got it playable for me in graphical form?" In the end though I just decided it was fun, and left it at that. I wonder what I wouldn't thought now with intombed on the horizon. Beware the Grue! Dark. - Original Message - From: "Bryan Peterson" To: "Gamers Discussion list" Sent: Tuesday, December 16, 2008 1:47 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Question about BG games produced by Ian Humphreys. Well that and card games have never been my thing. I tend to lose interest rather rapidly. Growing up my folks could rarely if ever get me to sit down to a game of cards for more than a few minutes. In fact my preferred genre of games has been pretty much ignored by most devs until recently. Ever since I discovered audio gaming four years ago I've been hoping for a true audio role-playing game in the style of Final Fantasy or even Legend of Zelda. Entombed, the flagship title from Driftwood Games, is the closest thing I've seen to what I'm looking for. Of course what with it being in its Alpha stage at the moment it's hardly surprising the demo is A. incomplete and B. more than a little buggy. But it's got some serious potential even just from looking at the current demo. - Original Message - From: "Allison Mervis" To: "Gamers Discussion list" Sent: Monday, December 15, 2008 6:26 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Question about BG games produced by Ian Humphreys.

Hi all! Does anyone know if Ian Humphreys is planning to begin offering his games for download? I had him send me BG yahtzee when I had a different email provider, and I loved it, but GMail has always been funny about attachments, and it would really be faster if I could download them from somewhere. I'd love to check out more of his games. Thanks!

Re: [Audyssey] Jim's Monopoly question
Hi dark, I doubt that when people are playing monopoly in chat rooms, Skype conferences etc that the game master or mistress is relating what happens on each turn. Pretty sure that actually all people involved hear the play from the gm computer. So a player just needs to ask the gm to use the tour board or check asset option. Oh wow, look if I roll a 5 I will land on free parking and collect 1,957 dollars. I probably should not do that even though I have the option to do so. Oh wow, if player number 2 rolls a 3 they will land on my boardwalk with a hotel. I probably should not do that even though I have the option to do so. That is cool that you are working so hard to get all of the links on the audiogames site up to date. However personally I do not think that direct links to my games is a good thing. I mean that then skips people going to my front page and even worse they may miss reading winkit.zip 2.4m bytes May 2003 contains a game menu system and the board game of life Please install the winkit.zip file before installing any of the below games.
