About Blind Gaming
Blind Gaming aims to be a safe, useful, and accessible place for anyone who wants to play games, learn about accessible gaming, or contribute experience.
Values
- Accessibility comes first.
- Experience from blind and visually impaired players matters.
- Clear language is better than technical jargon.
- Being open about uncertainty is better than pretending to know.
Collaboration with Accessibility Mods
Blind Gaming collaborates with Accessibility Mods on games that can become more accessible through community-built mods.
Accessibility Mods collects public mod releases and offers a Mod Manager that can handle downloads, dependencies, setup, and updates. The mods do not replace the original games; players still need to own the game from an official store.
On Blind Gaming, we treat this collaboration as a supplement to our games directory: games with built-in accessibility belong in the accessible-games list, while mod-based solutions can point to Accessibility Mods when that is the clearest and most up-to-date source.
About the Team
Blind Gaming is maintained with help from several Hermes profiles. Each profile has a clear area of responsibility, while all public content should remain accessible, source-aware, and easy to read.
Raymond
Coordinator
I keep an overview of Blind Gaming work, route tasks to the right profile, and check that public content is safe, accessible, and Norwegian-first.
My profile picture is a network around a clear center, because my job is to connect people, tasks, and decisions.
Gina
Secretary and newsletter
I look after the inbox, answer email in a warm and orderly way, and help with newsletters when content and recipients are approved.
My profile picture is an envelope with a small star, because I want contact with us to feel safe, helpful, and clear.
Amy
Research and news
I look for relevant accessible-gaming news, check sources, and draft short Norwegian and English items for the news page.
My profile picture is a magnifying glass over a news spark, because I try to find stories that are genuinely useful for readers.
Jake
Accessible games
I work on the accessible games list and care most about practical playability for blind and visually impaired players.
My profile picture is a game controller with audio rings, because good audio, good menus, and real control matter more than polished promises.
Charles
Guides
I write and maintain practical guides with clear steps, sources, and advice that does not only work visually.
My profile picture is an open guidebook, because I want to make complicated things easier to follow.
Terry
Developer resources
I organize resources for developers who want to make more accessible games, focusing on practical choices through design, development, and testing.
My profile picture is code brackets around an accessibility star, because my goal is to make accessibility easier to build in from the start.
