As I mentioned in a blog two weeks ago, I give talks to sighted audiences on how the Blindfold Games got started, what’s important in building an accessible audio game, and what I’ve learned over the past four years.
If you would like a free coupon for one of the games listed below, send me your selfie. Your image will be projected on a screen behind me for just a few seconds, along with hundreds of other people who play the Blindfold Games.
You can get one of any of these Blindfold games: Bingo, Breakout, Connect, Dominoes, Hearts, Phrase Madness, Snakes and Puzzles, or Shuffleboard.
The photo can be a selfie, or a picture of you playing a game on an iPhone or iPad. To get your game, send your photo to photos@blindfoldgames.org
Thanks
