[games_access] EIGA Award - Category "Game Accessibility"? (Sandra Uhling)

[Jonathan Chetwynd]

Sandra,

in part the difficulty is one of language,

http://www.peepo.com hosts a highly innovative Go game,
the innovation is partly the technology,
which being HTML5 follows web accessibility guidelines.

but also the graphical advice during play,
comments, hints and maps such as
monte-carlo risk analysis of territory are presented in real time,
as an aid to learning.

However the game of Go itself is 2500 years old,
so is this what the organisers desire?

kind regards
