This section of my website is dedicated to those games which are sound-based and can be played by the blind or visually impaired. These games use stereo or surround sound to imerse the blind player in a given situation just as mainstream games do with graphics for the sighted. There are several enterprising companies producing these types of games, and I will present some information and links to those that I have.
The company with which I have the most experience is BSC Games which is owned by Justin Daubenmire who is blind. I've had the privilidge of working with Justin over the last year as a sales and technical support representative. Here is a complete listing of the games offered by BSC games, their prices, a brief description, and a link where you can download them.
