As I understand it, the New York Times bought the Wordle files and the Wordle site is no longer playable. Instead, you have to go to Wordle - New York Times. This site is not accessible for playing Wordle. Are there any workarounds or do I just need to wait or advocate for the New York Times to make it accessible. I followed the directions on the recent AppleVis Wordle podcast but I think I was a day late for getting the files downloaded.

There's a discussion on twitter asking about how in/accessible WWF is now.
Has anyone tried it recently? I haven't, my rudimentary understanding was that the letters are labelled correctly but you can't drag them onto the board, as you have no wa of finding out what you're dragging them onto.
Is that correct? does anyone know what precisely would need to be done to make it V/O accessible?

Hi everyone! It's been a while. I'm pleased to announce Wordvoyance is officially soft-launched in Canada for iOS!
There's been a lot going on since we last previewed the project here in 2021. First off: Wordvoyance is a crossword-building game similar to Words With Friends and Scrabble, but with added features and screen reader support to facilitate blind play. Importantly, to a sighted person the game has appealing visuals and plays exactly as you would already expect, meaning blind players can enjoy the game with their sighted friends and family.

Hello, I am planning to develop a browser game that would be called Street War. The game is about training your gangster by improving skills and then completing missions and capturing buildings on the street to collect protection money. Players could furthermore join syndicates to compete together against others and defend dominance over the city. There could be several servers in the game, each server is a city with the street to fight on. The following points would exist in the game:

Hello all.

Hi, can anyone explain how to use looted items in iMobster? For example I have army surplus weapons and truma kit. Not sure how to use them. The army weapons are supposed to deal more damage to opponents but not sure what the truma kit does. Does the game automatically use looted items or do I hav to do something. Thanks for any help.

I have four of the x2 line Games including baby a doctor, little girl magic, and orange tree. they are not syncing with game Center on my iPhone 5s and iPad mini two. Does anyone have any idea why this is happening? I am exclusively using voice over also.

Long message. But basicly explains how to navigate these apps and deal with the hugely minor oddities about them.
Hi everyone. I guess I am a very advanced voice over user so the questions people keep on asking about these apps really kind of to me is like "review the screen and just work with it it is fully accessible."
But then I think Jessica some people may be new to the iphone or not sure how to deal with these few oddities that come up in apps. And sometimes when I explain things I forget something very vital.
So I am going to try in this post to cover everything that to me is obvious.

Can anyone advise on how to play content from the Yoga Downloads App? There are plenty of audio lessons but they won't play using Voice Over on my iPhone 2020. I can't use magnification but have been told, with sighted assistance, that there is a small arrow within in the graphic at the top of the scree. This is undetected by V O, and turning off the screen reader and having a stab aint working!
Any suggestions for a work around much appreciated.
Mark.

Just finished Broken Sword 2 and I really loved the tropical location. I have now completed the other Broken Sword games but am looking for something that captures that summer/tropical feeling to play in my yard with a glass of wine. Any recommendations?

Zanagrams game
I began playing this game and thought it was very nice, however, it crashes after playing, and some puzzles I have solved show up that I did not complete.
Is there other game alternative similar to this one? I do like it.
Thank you.

Hi everyone, I am trying out the new zanagrams app. It seems very accessible, however if I misspell part of a puzzle, how do I get the letters to no longer be dimmed when I clear it? I can’t seem to figure out how to start the puzzle over. Has anyone figured this out? Thank you.

Hey all,
I'm a 27 year-old Marine Corps veteran, and I lost my sight four years ago to a suicide attempt. After learning to use screen-readers and attending college, I learned how many things are inaccessible to our community, and decided to become part of the solution. So, I dropped-out of college almost two years ago to teach myself how to code.
My first app, which is a word puzzle game called Zanagrams, is now available on the App Store, is complete-accessible with Voiceover, and can also be played by sighted family members and friends!

Today I was read about some iphone games called Zombie edoxus, Zebolus, The Dilemma etc etc.
Are these games just in text? I'm following instructions and go on by next, next next. I don't think its happens something.
You know the games Sixthsense, Fighter City? I wish that there's more of it.
Zombie exodus and Zebolus are not on reality action.
How does these work?!!! There is another iPhone action games by sound and/or skills/gestures I'd become happy. It sounds boring to only read instructions all time.

Hi all. To those who want to play and help testing the second Zombie exodus, here is the link to it. http://zombieexodus.com/ze2/web/mygame/index.html

Hi all,
For those unaware, in Zombies, Run! 4.0, a feature was introduced called Continuous Play. After a mission is completed, this feature allows you to immediately jump into the next mission once the previous one has been finished. This means not having to takeout your device to click stop, back to base, and finally click the next mission indicator on the home tab.
