[games_access] Games to Demo Physical / Sensory / Cognitive Impairments

[Brannon Zahand]

I'm looking for one or two games that highlights the difficulties of playing with a specific disability. For example, I'd like to find a game that is incredibly reliant on sound and then have individuals play with the sound off. As another example, it would be great to find a game that I can modify the visual settings such to mimic someone with color blindness or macular degeneration.

Overall, I'd like at least one game for Auditory, Speech, Visual, Physical, and Cognitive impairments each.

Thanks! :)

You are welcome to my PPT from Microsoft -- actually they said it would be on the internal servers at Microsoft. If they aren't, ping me offlist and I can send them to you.

Any particular disabilities you are interested in? That was a pretty widely cast net. :)
