I think she meant Moxie. There is a FREE version and a paid version. The
paid version removes the ads.

Hello,
Is this game you described free, Sandy? What is it called? Thanks!
It sounds like a cool one.

Hi Robin,
maybe the Moxi word game developers would like to take a stab at this?

Dear listers
Does anyone know of an accessible iOS crossword game. By this I’m afraid
I
don’t just mean one where you need to roam around the grid with your
finger
to ascertain where the blanks and clues are etc, but rather one that I
suspect is specifically designed for blind users. I’ll explain – I would
like a game that allows you to browse up and down the list of clues
(perhaps in two columns – one for down clues and one for across) and each
time you hear something like “13 down. Type of medieval dagger commonly
used in Scotland. 4 letters. Blank, blank, blank, blank” All these
elements
are spoken thus giving you all the info you need to proceed. When you
already have some of the letters it would say the same first part of the
phrase but the last part would now be “Blank, I, blank, K” or similar.
You
never need to bother with the grid as you are only ever working with the
clues.
If you want to enter a guess you can click on that clue and you get a
text
box that will accept 4 letters, or perhaps 4 separate boxes with any
letters already present filled in in the relevant places.
Perhaps when you complete a clue it would say “13 down. Filled in. Type
of
medieval dagger commonly used in Scotland. 4 letters. Dirk.” (i.e. would
indicate that it had a word filled in and it would also no longer
separate
the letters but rather speak out the filled in word so it sounds like a
word and not individual letters).
When the entire crossword is completed you would get an alert to say that
you’ve got them all correct.
Anything like this already exist? I’m not interested in the more
conventional approach even if it is accessible I’m afraid. My gaming time
is limited and any roaming – even on the scale of Wordundrum – would be
too
time consuming I’m afraid. If such a game doesn’t exist it would be great
if a coder took it on.
Thanks, Robin.
