Hi, new here, looking for recommendations for games able to be played easily by a fully blind lady. (self.Blind)
submitted 7y ago by KarmaUK
That's pretty much it, PC or android phone or tablet. Free would be nice, but I expect she'd buy something worthwhile.

Slightly sideways of topic, but we've recently found some Tabletop games (besides monopoly/uno/connect4)! 64oz Games make accessibility packs for use with Tabletop games. Some work better than others. Might be an avenue to go down if she's interested in other games.

Actually there was a discussion just yesterday from someone who is looking to build a game that is blind friendly. It is $1. I think /u/fastfinge is also pretty knowledgeable on this topic. If you just search the sub for "games," "game," or "gaming" there are a lot of posts about gaming, blind friendly games, and ideas. /u/fastfinge also has a few screen reader friendly gaming posts.

Thanks to all, and I'll obviously check back and read any comments that come after this. Given me some things to look into!

PC Games:

The wastes: /r/thewastes

entombed: http://www.blind-games.com/entombed.aspx

RS Games: http://rsgames.org/

Alter Aeon: http://mush-z.com/

Sryth: http://sryth.com/

Kitchen's Inc games: http://blog.bryansmart.com/2015/08/12/kitchens-sink-1-0/

To my mind, those are the biggest and the best, and all also pretty newbie friendly. If she's looking for a particular genre (sports, card, board, science fiction, fantasy, etc) , let me know and I can probably recommend something.

I can give you some android ideas of games, but there's not much in-depth for that platform. Lifeline. Wizard's Choice, Detective's Choice, Zombie's Choice. Totally Random Hero. Stekk 1 and 2. amud:3k Downtown Mafia. Legend of the Blue Dragon. Godville. .
That's all I can recall off the top of my head, sorry. But I hope this helps a little bit.
