Blindfold Games are entertainment apps provided as a service to the visually impaired community by Objective Ed. Your in-app upgrades pay for the development and support of these games.  Sudoku Mini is a fully accessible Sudoku game for both sighted and visually impaired people, designed for rapid audio play. It's a starter game for Sudoku - a 4-by-4 puzzle game that's great for kids and adults just getting started with Sudoku. Sudoku Mini comes with 5 Sudoku 4-by-4 easy puzzles - and is controlled through gestures. It doesn't require voice-over but is fully compatible with voice-over.

Tap on a cell to hear what's in the cell, swipe right to hear the row, swipe down to hear the column and swipe up to hear the square. Blindfold Sudoku gives you audio cues to tell the difference between the initial puzzle cells and the cells you fill in, and it lets you set multiple candidates for a cell. You can set the game to use numbers, or animals (dog, cat, horse, or frog) or animal sounds.

About

Shift The Disks

Features
Read full description

Shift the Disks is a beautifully simple yet brain-teasing puzzle game inspired by the classic Towers of Hanoi. Your goal is to move all the disks from the leftmost tower to another, one move at a time, following a few clever rules. * Move only one disk at a time. Only the top disk of any tower can be moved. Larger disks can't go on top of smaller ones. * Tap a tower to select its top disk. Tap another tower to place the selected disk. Win the game by stacking all the disks on a different tower. Shift the Disks is fully compatible with VoiceOver and designed from the ground up to be accessible for blind and low-vision players. Every move, tower, and disk is clearly announced, making the experience intuitive and enjoyable for everyone. Whether you're a puzzle veteran or just looking for a relaxing brain workout, Shift the Disks delivers a timeless challenge you'll want to solve again and again. We would like to thank Ahmad Albahar for his help in testing the game.
