Blind Cube
Read full descriptionHide full description
Blind Cube is designed from the ground up to support blind individuals on their journey with the Rubik’s Cube. Most cubing software relies on visual cues, making the experience inaccessible for those using screen readers. Blind Cube changes this by implementing full VoiceOver support and providing clear, instructions for every action. The app is fully accessible with VoiceOver and includes the following functionality: • Custom Cube Definitions: Tailor the app to your specific equipment. You can register your physical Rubik’s Cube by defining the unique textures found on each center face. Once configured, the app uses your personalized "tactile map" for all scrambling and solving functions. • Cube Scrambler: Select your cube and generate a new scramble. You can receive step-by-step instructions to reach the intended state and verify the cube's orientation after each move. You can also use the most recent scramble to initiate a solve. • Cube Solver: Select your cube, input the texture for each block on every face, and tap "Solve." The app provides detailed instructions on how to solve the cube, allowing you to track the cube's state at every step. • Cube Timer: A built-in basic timer to help you track your solving speed and maintain a history of your recent performances. Additional Capabilities: • Flexible Instructions: View scramble and solve directions via plain text instructions or standard Cube Notation. • Data Sharing: Easily copy scramble instructions, generated solutions, or your current cube state to your clipboard.

MAKE A HAND. BUILD AN ENGINE. BREAK THE MATH. Step into the Night Parade: a number-card roguelite where simple hands become outrageous scoring machines. Draw 8 cards, play up to 5, and turn familiar sets and runs - plus Sum to Ten, Spectrum, and Pure Run - into chips x mult. Then draft relics, tune your deck, and survive eight escalating rounds. EASY TO READ. DEEP TO MASTER. • See your score before you commit a hand • Keep the complete hand table one tap away • Read every suit by color, symbol, and name • Spot overlapping hands and score the strongest pattern BUILD SOMETHING BROKEN • Discover 22 relics across common, uncommon, and rare tiers • Combine relic effects into powerful scoring engines • Add, enhance, or remove cards in The Exchange • Upgrade cards with foil, holo, and gild enhancements • Bank coins between rounds to earn interest - or spend them chasing the perfect build THE RULES CHANGE AS YOU CLIMB Every run climbs through eight named rounds. From the third, each round bends a rule: fewer swaps, a smaller hand, halved coins, or junk hands worth nothing. Beat The Auditor at Round 8 to win. Your run saves after every action, so you can leave and continue exactly where you stopped. ONE SHARED DAILY Everyone gets the same seeded run each day: the same deal, the same rule changes, and the same Exchange.
