Re: 10 years of playroom! oh battle cars is cool. Would definitely enjoy an online version of this! It uses only a standard pack of 52 cards so you don't have to worry about designing extra cards.

Re: 10 years of playroom! I can't express just how much joy this platform has brought me. Thank you for everything you've done. I love the web version and the fact anyone can play because everything is printed to the screen. I play Monopoly, Uno, Spades, and Hearts almost daily with my sighted sister and father. It's great fun for everyone and makes me feel less left out in terms of gaming with my family. I hope the system sticks around for many years to come.I have one small request to make. please either reverse the default scoring system in Uno or provide a rule to do it. It's a bit strange that the person with the lowest score wins, when it's usually the person with the highest.

Re: 10 years of playroom! Wow, it has been such a long ride but felt like just days or even less than that, doesn't it. Seven years ago I joined playroom and met so many wonderful people there. It was part of my growing up process in both good and bad ways. I am sure I had sturred up a trouble there once or twice, or even three times who knows. But my entry to the blind international community certainly started with swamp and pr. I wish to see how pr would grow in another decade, or even twenty years. Who knows many of us might grow old together, still chatting away or scrambling through card games on pr even when we become grandparents. There are people like me who love to play strategy games such as chess in pr, however the lack of playing against computer is also a big factor why there is so few percentage of the playerbase are interested in those. Isn't it possible to add AI bot for the chess at least? If that happens, i just might actually live in pr everyday from that point on.

Re: 10 years of playroom! Hello,Thank you very much for your nice messages.About the various game suggestions, most of them have already been proposed. More precisely:@9: cards against humanity:I have a personal difficulty here, because I don't have a sufficient english culture and humor to 1 - properly take over the game, if you understand what I mean2 - translate it to french with a comparable styleProbably that my english knowledge isn't good enough to access all the required finenesses. That's sad, because the game looks really fun.And I want to understand what I do; I don't want to copy like a monkey.@15: battle gameI have already thought several times about a battle game, either with a standard 52 cars deck (several are referenced on pagat.com), or with a pure invention (like crazy party battle)For the first, the games are largely unknown and finally quite limited in possibilities for a battle game, so I'm not sure they are so interesting. Does anyone has already played one of them in real life? Perhaps it can help choosing one and determining if really it would be worth it.For the second, no idea came to sufficient maturation yet, especially in the game mechanics to use.1 - I don't want to copy CP battle2 - I like CP battle, but I have still some criticisms about its system I wouldn't likw to reproduce. For example I don't like much that even if you chose a good fire deck but your opponent chose water, even if you have good skills, it's going to be ahrd to win. Just because you had no luck when choosing your deck.3 - Magic the gathering is an excellent game, but way, way, way to complicated. It's very difficult to learn it, and a so difficult game has much less chances to be played by many people and be appreciated for its real value.To sum up, it's still quite probable that a battle game of one or the other kind will eventually appear in the playroom. I regularly think about it.Let us the time to come with something interesting in mechanics, with limited luck part, and reasonably simple to learn without sacrificing gameplay and replayability. It isn't impossible.@16: non card games and audiogamesIntegrating audiogames is also on the reflections for the client v3.For the fifth anniversary, we indeed made a special event and proposed CP-like minigames. But there were a lot of bugs, that's why we didn't keep it after the end of the celebration.I really hope to bring audiogames back in the playroom at some point. @18: checkersI have a much more mixed feeling here. Chess, connect four and reversi all have the same problems:1 - 1 vs 1 strategy games have already not a great popularity per se on the playroom, many people find them simply too complicated and/or don't want to think too much when playing a game2 - Many players reported their difficulty to play without a physical board in front of them, some players don't play on the playroom only for this reasonSo, I don't know. Maybe one day there will be checkers, but I'm not very motivated to do it.

Re: 10 years of playroom! No matter what some people think of the playroom (especially its admins), it is hard to argue with your point about it being a city. It is possibly one of the largest, most culturally diverse metropolises in the audiogaming community, and it's cool that it provides so many people so much joy. I also play it from time to time and have had many hours of fun with it since 2012, even if I'm not one of the people who practically lives there.

10 years of playroom! Hello all,I have released this evening a new program to play card games online in an accessible way.I have called this program the playroom. Yes, that's a room where you can play games, hance this very simplistic name.Ten years ago, smart was the one who could predict that the above innocuous lines would launch a small revolution in the world of accessible gaming.In any case, if you told me so at that time, I would have found you completely crazy.Think a little, just a tiny card game! I belief I would draw interest of no more than a couple casual players. I was far from imaginating that it would go to that huge extent, and even less that it would be so fast!I think I shouldn't go red about the term revolution: beyond a simple game, the playroom has become a true city.A city with people coming in and going away. A city with those who live there, and those who only pass or stay for a while.A city with its good stories, its less good as well. But a city who live, day and night.Today, the playroom is ten years old!If this big city has been able to flourish, that's because of everyone.Wheter you have contributed to this great adventure in a way or another, be it as an administrator, helper, translator, quiz validator or writer, we would like to say you a great thank you for your support, or simply for your faithfulness presence. Without you, the playroom wouldn't be anything.WE also need to warmly thank all players, yes, you! You have carried on games one after the other. You have shared good times and fun laughs. You have created or participated to tournaments. You made us be known, to your near friends as well as everywhere around the world, without ever the need for us to praise or advertise. You have all built up this platform together and keep making it live. Really, you deserve a great thank you king size!This message is perhaps the occasion for those who hardly or never come to our forum to express yourself about what you liked, what you liked less, what you imagine for the future of this universe, or maybe to share a few small funny anecdotes.Our forum stays the privileged way of communicating, but we can certainly make a small exception for a while in order to celebrate this decade, can't we?We will of course have the occasion to share this soon around a virtual table.Given that our respective personal lives are much more full than in 2010, no date hasn't yet been fixed for a special event. Be sure that there will soon be one, though. We must celebrate it!What's the future is going to be on our beloved platform?At short term, a small surprise. At the moment, I can only tell you that ducks are implied (No no, don't call ASPCA, I only talk about ducks for bath, obviously!)At middle term, a 3.0 client entirely made from scratch, and the concretisation, I hope, of what I started five years ago. No, I haven't forgotten, I only took bad directions and I lose my way. It can happen to anyone!And at long term, I don't know. Maybe one day there will be a client for Mac, for iOS, a nicer interface for sighted people, or maybe none of all these. Nobody knows. Maybe we will need to wear a mask to come in the playroom, who knows?Smart is the one who know where we are going to be in 2030, especially with the general uncertainty and the deep questionnings we are all living right now. What is sure, though, is that we will continue to do our maximum to preserve what have made the playroom a success until now. The best shouldn't change!Let's talk about it again in ten years?Thank you very much everybody, and long live the playroom!Happy birthday!
