Hmmm. Perhaps, though at the time of writing I believe we were discussing
IE, and this is occurring under OS X and Safari.

Hi Haiden.

Try looking at the options, and check the audiogmaes.net entry, sinse I
recall making some suggestions there though sinse I wrote that page a while
ago I don't recall which settings are needed. I think it was compact mode
and turn off images.

Beware the grue!

Hi Emily.
After the tutorial you should be able to click on locations like seaside 
town or nearby planes, and then click on sublocations like cobs knob or the 
counsel of loathing.


You might want to go and check the interface options and disable images nd 
play with some other elements, but I certainly don't recall anything bad 
enough that it made me completely stuck.


Beware the grue!

Dark.

hi all,

i was just wondering if anyone has had any success with playing the
kingdom of loathing?

i found it on the whitestick website, and as far as i can tell, after
you've finnished the tutorial, the game is completely in accessible
(though maybe i'm missing something)

anyway i figured i'd get all your opinions, because if it really is not
suited for the blind, someone should inform tom so he can take it down

thanks

Hardly. As a current player of KoL I can say that it remains to this day
very accessible. As Dark said, there is the odd unlabeled link here and

Re: [Audyssey] accessibility of the kingdom of loathing?

2014-10-14 Thread dark

Hi.

Hi.

I played KoL a lot last year.

Access wise  the majority was absolutely perfect, indeed i was quite 
impressed at the way they had textual descriptions of some visual puzzles 
like the guarden map puzzle in the sorceress' fortress.


There was the odd unlabled location link, but not many of these, and sinse 
once you clicked a location you found out what it was without using an 
adventure this didn't matter too much, not given that there were only two or 
three unlabeled links (mostly in the sorceress fortress).


My only issue with the game was that I found it a little hard to maintain my 
interest, and also that I got a bit sick of having to use the wiki for some 
ridiculously obscure puzzle solutions especially with recipes and such, but 
access wise I never had an issue.


All the best,

Dark.

Hi Emily,

Bare in mind that it has been a long time since I have played that
game, but back when I played Kingdom of Loathing it was very
accessible. However, it is entirely possible things have changed, and
I don't know its current accessibility status. So hopefully someone
else will give us a current update as to its accessibility.
