Although I agree with a lot of what you point out, I have to say that, in my opinion, audio games are totally accessible to sighted gamers as long as they can hear. To say that they are not is like a user of speech only saying that a braille display is not usable to them, even though they do

Does anyone know where a potential blind chess player can get a chess set of the Staunton design at a reasonable price? Also, a mechanical or digital chess clock, again, at a reasonable price? I can find neither. Thanks. The chess sets that I find either cost $100 or more, or they are of

They can do it, though, which is my point. I cannot go into a video arcade and play the games. One more thing: Nice Play Room. I did find that your chess game had a bug in it the last time I played it. If you get checkmated, you cannot make a move even though it says that it is your turn.

Usually, the black squares are raised, and the black pieces are tactually marked with either a dot or a nail sticking out of the top. They are not sharp, so there is no worry of getting, um, nailed, so to speak. The hard part about finding a good chess set is that most are not of the

As I understand it, and this makes sense, if a game developer charges, let's say $2 for a game, that would be the price in the country in which the game was created. If your country's currency is of less value, you pay the equivallent price, maybe $2.50. Or you may pay less. It is based on
