[blindkid] blindkid Digest, Vol 157, Issue 9

[Anne Ward]

I am wondering if Hibiki has heard about Blindfold games.  I don't play
them myself, but I keep getting emails about them.  Find them at
https://blindfoldgames.org/apps-we-built/
That address gives you a list of the games they've got available.
Yours,
Anne Ward
