Hi Nicol,
I found the games created for the IF contest each year are easier than full
games since I think the games are supposed to be finished in a half hour.
One I liked was Bears night out.
You should be able to find it on the IF archive site along with all the

Hi,
Does anyone know of good mainstream games for the PC that can be played
without sighted assistance? I know there are lots of text adventure games
out there, but what about other types?
Thanks.
Yours Sincerely,
Kelly John Sapergia
For a mix of New Age, Ambient, Easy Listening,
If you're looking for Trivia, try the You Don't Know Jack series. Great
games. If you're looking for... ya know... something else, try Silent Steel.
Sort of an Interactive Movie deal, and it's compatible with Jaws. Awesome,
ain't it? Haha.

I was just going to suggest You Don't Know Jack. Granted they're not
completely accessible (some of the different types of questions do require
some measure of sighted assistance), but the amount of material that is
accessible due to the amount of dialogue in the game is quite impressive.
where can you find silent steel?

There is actually an Austin Powers trivia game, made by the same company,
which is 100 percent accessible. There are different question types but

Hello Nicol,
The link for sryth is:

As far as I can tell it is free but to get the most out of the game you need
to join the adventurers guild which costs $20 a year I believe.

Hi, Mark.
As stated before in your mud client give it the domain and port number.
After it connects to the game you will get a welcome screen. If it is
your first time you will need to create a new character/account.
