Jordan Verner of Ontario had a dream: he wanted to complete Orcarina of Time, a video game in the Legend of Zelda franchise. But he is blind, which makes playing a video game, let alone completing it, very difficult. Three men who read of his predicament on the Internet responded by writing a complete, keystroke-by-keystroke guide to completing the game.

    It’s also a bonus that he picked one of the best games of all time! (My favorite of all time for sure!)

    I have some blind friends that play videogames – super mario bros, tekken, soul calibur, need for speed, fifa – one of them even Wing Commander. There’s a real scene of blind videogamers, one hub is http://www.audiogames.net/ where you can find special games for blinds – and mods of non-accessible games, for example the well known audio Quake.
