About

Braille Bubbles

Features
Read full description

What a great fun way to learn Braille characters - with bubbles! The goal is simple - a Roman letter is randomly selected and random bubbles with Braille characters rise across the screen. When you find a Braille bubble that matches the goal Roman character touch it, pop it, and get a point. If you pop a bubble that doesn't match you lose a life (heart). If you miss a matching bubble and it reaches the top you lose a life. Not to fear, you can set how fast bubbles appear and how fast they rise to the top. You can also turn on hints that flash the Braille letter over the Roman letter AND will flash a circle around the bubble on the screen. Track your success for every letter. If you wish you can reset all the points saved and restore the game to the initial settings. It's maximum fun and flexibility!
