Hey everyone,
Just wanted to share some unfortunate news I came across. It looks like Audio Wizards and A Blind Legend have been removed from the App Store—at least here in the U.S. I haven’t been able to confirm if they’re gone in other regions like the EU, but they’re definitely no longer showing up on the U.S. store.
These were two standout games when it came to audio-based gameplay, especially for blind and visually impaired players. Their removal is honestly pretty disappointing. There’s been no official word on why they were taken down or if they’ll be back at some point.
If anyone has info on whether they’re still available elsewhere or has heard anything from the developers, definitely share it here. Would love to know more.
Really hoping this isn’t the end for either of them.

This is extremely disappointing! I don't really know about Audio Wizard but A Blind Legend is one of those classic games that is still so good! Assuming you are right then RIP honestly.
Agreed
I agree, this is extremely disappointing news. Hopefully this is just a temporary solution to a potential software issue, and that these games will return soon. 🤔
Not gonna lie, I wouldn’t be too surprised
Knowing Apple, they’ve probably removed those apps or games because of lack of updates. I know a blind legend hasn’t been updated in a few years, not sure about audio wizards.
It's such a shame that…
It's such a shame that capitalism doesn't allow the same protection for game as other media like books or etc. I fear they become the new 6th sense likes.
This is an old news articel but maybe it explains it.

Frustrating and very disappointing to know this
I am very disappointed with this decision from App Store blind legend is one of the classic games and especially iOS doesn't have much games as android or Windows so Mac and iOS need to have more games for visually challenged
A blind legend
A blind legend is no longer on the App Store in my area
Doesn't the developer have…
Doesn't the developer have to host and maintain the app on their own servers? If there isn't any income, IE, no one is buying the game, I guess they just pack up shop.
Developer
Contact the developers. Either Apple removed the apps, or more likely, the developer stopped paying the annual fee and the apps went away. This is what happens when we aggressively use DRM and allow software to be centrally controlled by giant companies that don't care about anything other than making as much money as humanly possible.
