Abstract

Computer games are one of the most challenging applications concerning accessibility and usability for people with disabilities. There are only a few games available, which are accessible and most of the time only for a special group of people with specific needs, e.g. games for blind people. Due to this designing games for all and implementing accessibility in mainstream games is a rather new challenge. This paper presents a game designed for all and will discuss the benefits of different accessibility features to several groups of people with disabilities.
