Description
**** This app requires Special Playing Cards that can be purchased at https://www.qrspeak.com
If you have recently lost your eyesight, have been blind since birth, or have limited vision, enjoying playing cards can be hard to do. There is the option of braille cards but they are bulky to shuffle and if recently vison impaired you need to learn how to read the braille on the cards. We have created a new way of playing cards for the blind or vison impaired called Cards that Talk.
You simply place the card under the camera on the apple device and it will read the card to you. You can wear an earpiece so only you know what cards you hold.
Cards that Talk also features a continuous scanner so that once the app is started there is no need to touch the device again until you are done enjoying playing cards. There are buttons that you can either slow down the speed of the voice or speed it up depending on your preference. All that is left for you to do is enjoy playing cards again.
Features
- Continuous scanning; no tapping the screen after each card
- variable speed control for voice
- larOubliette is the classic multiplayer dungeon fantasy role playing game, finally available on the iPhone/iPod Touch. Build a party of fighters, priests, mages and thieves to run deep into the dungeon. Test your courage and skill against groups of orcs, trolls, vampires and dragons.
Earning its reputation as the thinking man’s dungeon game, Oubliette blends the thrill of mortal combat with the sublime challenges of strategy, planning and adaptation. Rather than testing your reaction speed and nerves, like a first person shooter, Oubliette challenges the player to do careful strategic planning as well as make tactical decisions in the heat of battle.
Each player (character) in the game is created from one of eight player races, which vary in attributes such as strength, intelligence, dexterity and durability. Elves are highly intelligent and (potentially) immortal, Orcs are strong with short life spans, Dwarves are strong with high wisdom, Kobolds are quite weak in most areas but advance more quickly.
Depending on these attributes, each player will be qualified to join a limited number of player classes (occupations). More balanced players will have more choices, including Hirebrand (fighter), Mage, Priest and Thief. Less commonly, players may be qualified for a highly selective class with special skills such as Ranger, Sage, Paladin, Samurai or Ninja.
Unlike games which focus on a single player against multiple opponents, Oubliette allows a party of up to 10 players with complementary skills to face the various types of monsters found in the dungeon. There are more than 160 different monsters, and to deal with them, more than 150 different pieces of equipment, which may be enchanted with special properties or skills.
Oubliette is challenging, but forgiving. New players commonly have their parties wiped out by an unfamiliar group of monsters. In fact, your party can meet up to 3 monster groups at the same time! Use the Temporal Chamber to save a Temporal Portal before dangerous trips. If things turn out badly, use the Temporal Chamber to turn back the clock and try again. The trapeze is every bit as thrilling, but safer, with a net below.
If you are up to the challenge, Oubliette is free to download and play. Explore the easier levels of the dungeon to build your party and expertise. And then, when you are ready, feel the power of the game on the deeper levels. Onward to Glory!ge start scanning button so no fumbling trying to find it
Cards that Talk is free but will require our playing cards that can be purchased. Contact us at https://www.qrspeak.com and click the link to buy cards or we can answer any questions that you may have. The cards are professionally printed and will hold up like any other deck of cards. Since there is no braille on them they are smooth. This makes them easier to shuffle and to play wit
