Does anyone know of any *free* accessible games which will work with jaws 5.1 and windows xp pro? Just curious!

Go to www.pcsgames.net. Click on the first link on the page. Its constantly being updated. Not all of these games are free, but you can always try demos, and theres plenty of sites to choose from!

You can get a free version of Solitaire from www.crisscrosstech.com
Also there are some free games on www.bscgames.com
And finally check out www.audysseymagazine.com to find out what else is out there in the blind market.

Have fun!

www.l-works.net has a few free games you can check out. We're also working on some other games.

Other sites include www.gmagames.com, and www.adoraentertainment.com. While those people may sell most of their games, they do have a lot of free games, and a lot of them don't even need jaws to work, cause they're self-voicing. So, that also works.

www.kitchensinc.net, or the new address, www.blindprodigy.net, has a lot of awesoem games. Ditto www.vipgameszone.com. There's tons more, which you can find at www.audiogames.net, which has a list of links to go to. Happy gaming!

If you go to www.7128.com you will find a list of the top 25 web sites for gamers who are blind. That will give you the addresses of sites that have both free and purchase accessible games. 7-128 Software has some demo games and some free games but you have to have the game book to play them.

There are kids games and games that are for older kids and adults. The Gamebook has story games, puzzle games and word games. The kids games are called Pizza Games.

The www.7128.com website is victim to the recent ice storm that left over a million homes and businesses without power in New England USA. I expect the site to be back up by Tuesday the 16th or Wednesday the 17th. Please check back then to see if they have it restored. Eleanor

First, just wanted to say thanks, to those who listed the game sites. Second, I am glad I am not the only one out here, who uses Jaws 5.10.
Can anyone tell me, the demo version of Sarah, and the castle of Witchcraft and Wizzardry is it fully functional? I was wondering because it seems like all I can do, is explore and use some of the spells. Maybe I am doing something wrong but thought I would ask. Sorry for taking over the topic.

I too am looking for free accessible games. I used to play the kitchensinc ones but I cant play them anymore because my sappy5 voices or computer voices do not work. so I need something that works with jaws. What would you recommend? Also i really liked to play baseball, does anyone know of an accessible baseball or something? Or maybe just anything intertaining. Thanks.

jim kitchen has a baseball game. you have to install the stuff he tells you to but the baseball one is cool. you can also download a batting practice program from there. Can't you repair the speech issue to the poster that is having that issue?

7-128 IS back on line. All our accessible games are self voiced so you can play them even if the JAWS version is not compatible.

Actually I tried all of the stuff they had on the website. i actually have all of the kitchensinc stuff reinstalled for about the third time because my computer messed up, adn corrupted all of my programs including narrator, so the tts ingines do not work and so I'm not sure what the deal is. I tried repairing with that delucerlux program thing but I dont think that worked, and so when I open up the game menu thing, it doesn't say anything.

You may want to think about emailing Jim. He is very timely in responding to someone's inquiry. Just make sure to explain everything that you shared out here on this board. This way, he will be better able in assisting you with what is going on.
Good luck,
Patti
