[Audyssey] Magic the Gathering IPad app

2015-03-02 Thread Denny Schwab
Hello,

Has anyone tried the Magic the Gathering application for the IPad?

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/magic-2015/id672924134?mt=8

I am wondering if it is accessible or not.  I will download later
today to give it a run through myself, but thought I'd see if anyone
here has tried it out yet.

Thanks.

All the trading card games sims I've found have been rather heavily flash or 
java based, and very obviously graphical. A lot of them are built with 
direct immage scans so its highly unlike that unless it was done with 
spacific intent for the blind that anyone would program in text versions of 
all the cards since the cards text could be read directly from the immage. 
I'd love to find an online accessible trading card game though, but I think 
it'll have to be created rather than found.

the developer of this brazilian yugioh game in text, but he didn't
agreed to translate it into english, and now i have the game here but

Hi,
Very true. Most card games even your poker games use scanned images of 
playing cards. The rule of thumb is if the developer doesn't have a 
physical disability he or she isn't going to give a second thought to 
accessibility unless someone can convince them otherwise. The sad truth 
is a lot of sighted people aren't even aware a blind person can operate 
a computer let alone play games.

Smile.

Hi,
If it is written in C++ you are basically screwed. C++ applications are 
operating system specific, and have to be compiled specifically for the 
platform you intend to run it on. So you will need the source code, and 
will probably have to modify it some to support Linux development libraries.
About the only suggestion I have is try and run the program using a 
Windows emulator such as wine. It may work, but then you are going to 
use a lot of valuable CPU and memory running the extra emulation layer 
on your system. I can say from firsthand experience running apps via 
wine sucks.

[Audyssey] Magic the gathering

2007-05-12 Thread Jacob Elsberry
Hi all,

Has anyone on here had an enjoyable time playing Magic? I know very little 
about the game, other than it is a strategy game involving cards, and you 
apparently need to keep adding to your card collection. Are people Brailing 
their own cards, or is there an online version that is accessible? Some people 
I hang out with get into this game, so thought I'd start researching it a 
little.

Thanks for any advice you can give,
Jake

Re: [Audyssey] Magic the gathering

2007-05-12 Thread Shadow Dragon
Its a pretty old game, much like Yu-Gi-Oh or any of the other trading card 
games out there, with its own unique set of rules and cards. As far as I 
know there's no acessible online version of the game, and brailing the cards 
is pretty much out of the question, since it ruins the collectors value and 
makes them impossible to trade, since you'll likely braille over the text or 
the picture or something. My cousin used to play it a long time ago, but he 
never really showed me the rules of the game. I've always thought it'd be 
interesting to try though. I have played Yu-Gi-Oh and the Pokemon trading 
card game, with sighted help. Basically you have to modify the rules a 
little and do either one of two things. Here's how I played Yu-Gi-Oh. I 
either, A, put a lot of trust in the person I was playing with and we both 
showed eachother our hands, so we knew who had what cards. Takes a bit of 
the strategy out of the game and some of the suspense, but you can still 
play. The other way to play Yu-Gi-Oh is partner matches, which the game is 
actually set up for. In this way you basically have a sighted partner tell 
you your hand and strategize with your partner to beat down your opponent or 
opponents. There's some online rules somewhere I'm sure, look them up if you 
want more info.
