Overview

RS Games specializes in the development of accessible games, products and software for the blind and visually impaired.
On Dec. 20, 2009, RS Games first began as a meager multiplayer, online version of monopoly.
Five years later, it boasts many popular board and card game titles such as Uno, Blackjack, Farkle and Cards Against Humanity.
This app lets you play all of the games featured on the RS Games website.
While some of these games are similar to some Blindfold Games, they are not related to the corresponding Blindfold Game.
All games in this app are designed for multiple players using the RS Games game server.
Some games provide a computer player to play with.
To start a game, tap START PLAYING. To move through any menu, swipe up and down.
