no shaun. we perhaps aren't mainstream. but yes, there its lots that
can be done in sound. i agree, there are limits to sound over visual
elements, but it actually doesn't have to be as simplistic as it
currently tends to be.
as for the online thing, well, i'm sorry, but if you look at the

Hi all. I really wish I could find a way to run those games on the mac, or
find a windows emulator of some sort. I've thought of another way of
multiplatform. What about the web? I know there are a few simple web games
on the experimental audiogames site, but what about longer games? Could a

Hi:
Yes, once again I find myself in agreement with Dallas. While it is
certainly true audio is limiting to a point it doesn't mean that it
has to be simplistic as it all too often tends to be with audio games.
For example, one genre or style of games that is way over represented
is the Space
Hi Dark:
Well, I certainly see where you are going with this, and you
definitely have raised some good points. However, I find myself
inescapably coming back to the issue of know-how and experience. Both
of which may be lacking from a lot of our audio game developers.
Let's start with the issue
Hi Tom.
I recognize the experience issue, which is precisely why I try to analyse
the factors which make a game like marrio brothers, (simple though it is),
more addictive and entertaining to play than a game like Q9, and then
analise these factors in detail so that my experience is at least
Lol ok, I've picked this game up again after an age of not playing it and
yes I do love this game it's really clever.
Unfortunately I'm finding it difficult to get the balance right and to
understand the map with vo.
The map is quite accessible yes but what I don't understand is the layout

Hi Darren.
Firstly regarding the map, you can swipe to scan around. You always start
with your tula selected so sending out an exploration mission will explore
your tula itself. To explore more generally, first you need the wanderers

I just got this game, a bit confusing at the moment but I do like it so far.

Hi,
While looking around AudioGames.net just now, I came across a program called
Accessible Chess Tutor. It's a self-voicing program that's supposed to tell
you the moves for each piece, but so far all I've been able to do is
navigate around a chess board with the arrow keys. When I find a
I haven't seen that program in a long time, but it seems like I remember
that you have to hit enter on a piece, and it will then let you know where
that piece can be moved to, although I don't recall how it conveys the info.
Or maybe you have to hit enter on the squares you wish to move from
Can you give more, or any, details?

Hi Ian.
I decided the description was so crazy I had to try this one, and it is
actually a lot of fun, sort of a bit like fallthru or castaways.
Basically, the buttons appear at the top and the history of what's going on
appear at the bottom mud style, though vo reads all the history anyway.
I do like what i’ve seen of it so far, I am always looking for new iPhone games
to get as I play games more on my iPhone now than I do on the computer.

Well the exploring is fun, and I like the access on the map, with the main
map for double tap and then move buttons it's a nice setup, also this is the
first Iphone game I've ever seen that has vo repeat spoken message in battle
in case you miss them which is good.
Deffinitely a good game for

Hi.
Basically the game is a mix between resource management and an old fashioned
dungeon style rpg (it rather reminded me of a dos game like fallthru or
drone).
You have a village of slaves who work to get you resources like wood, fir,
scales, teeth and such. You can build different
where do you get it and how much does it cost?

So is it a large game would you say? How vast is the game world is it a game
with an end or is it something you just keep doing and doing?

Well darren, the map is not large by mud standards, but when you considder
having to balance food and water requirements it is pretty big, since until
you've built some of the bigger items you just can't hold enough to get far.
I also believe the map locations might be somewhat randomized, but
