Ears Fortune Wheel is a fully accessible phrase guessing game for both sighted and visually impaired people, designed for rapid audio play inspired by the game Wheel of Fortune. You and your opponent take turns spinning a wheel to determine the cash prize you win if you guess a letter in the phrase,or the entire phrase, or you can buy a vowel. If you guessed right, you keep spinning the wheel and guessing more letters, until you determine the entire phrase. For example, one of the phrases in the game is "MORE FUN THAN A BARREL OF MONKEYS", and when the game starts out, it tells you that there are 7 words in the phrase and that the first word has 4 letters, the second word has 3 letters, the third word has 4 letters, and so on.

The Chuck-a-Nut puzzle is based on the concept of spoonerisms--when the sounds or syllables of two words are exchanged. An example of this would be the phrase "fight a liar" turning into the phrase "light a fire". In the game, users are given two clues of two spoonerisms, and have to figure out the correct answers. There are three hints available to assist players, and a "Beat's Me!" button if they cannot figure it out. Once they submit answers--correct or not--they get a scorecard with the day's results (with hints used and time taken) that they can share via text, email, etc. It is a short, sweet, fun daily activity that will entertain (and possibly even enlighten) users of all ages!
