Match2 Braille
Read full descriptionHide full description
A recognition-memory game that makes learning Braille fun! Touch on a block and a Roman or Braille letter appears. Touch on another block and the same happens. If you match a Braille letter to the same Roman letter those letters will give a little jiggle, sound effect, and clear off the board. Clear the entire board in the shortest time you can. When you make a match you receive 100 points. If you pick two letters that don't match that will cost you -10 points. Each time you play a new board there are randomized letters. Good news is the option to turn on "Hints". When "Hints" are turned on in the Settings panel the Roman equivalent will briefly appear over the Braille. Cool huh! You can also turn on/off the background music and sound effects, restart a game, or reset the entire game history thus clearing the best score and best time. Thanks to Freesound.org for a couple of sound clips!
