A list of all blind-accessible videogames

This is a list of every videogame accessible to the blind. For purposes of this article, blind means someone with no usable vision. For every game, it's level of accessibility will be described next to it.

For some games there is not enough information so feel free to leave your experiences in the comments. Also, if you know of any other blind-accessible games that aren't on this list, please write them down in the comments. You can also message me on Discord (my username is: molitvan).

This was originally started on June 18th, 2024 in the form of this Reddit thread and has since been moved here. A website for this list and more is planned in the future. Stay tuned!

Games

  • The Last of Us part I. (PC/PS5) - fully accessible w/audio description
  • The Last of Us part II. (PC/PS4/PS5) - fully accessible, but the PS5 and PC versions have more features like audio description and higher quality TTS with support for all game languages
  • God of War Ragnarök (PS4/PS5) - half-baked accessibility with many features broken or partially finished (like the screen reader not reading most of the game), but there is a guide, available here specifically meant to help blind players get around these issues. Also there is audio description, but with many grammatical errors.
  • Spiderman 2 (PC/PS5) - mostly accessible w/audio description (requires brief sighted assistance at certain points in the game, but otherwise fully accessible)
  • Minecraft: Java Edition (PC, with the Minecraft Access mod) - mostly accessible, requires decent spatial awareness
  • Factorio (PC, with the Factorio Access mod) - mostly accessible, currently stuck on an older game version with support for the newest version being worked on and expected probably in a few months. That older version (1.1) still has planty of content and new players won't notice any significant changes when upgrading to 2.0.
  • Lethal Company (PC, with the Lethal Access mod) - mostly accessible
  • Forza Motorsport (PC/Xbox) - fully accessible, high learning curve, includes audio description
  • As Dusk Falls (PC/PS5/Xbox) - fully accessible w/audio description (the game is also available for PS4, but that version is not accessible)
  • Hades (PC, with the Erumi's Blind Accessibility Options modpack) - playable, but a bit tricky at times, uses OCR
  • Hades II. (PC, with the Blind Accessibility and the Tolk Compatibility mods) - limited information, also there isn't any useful information in the mod's readme, but a post by the developer with more info can be found here
  • Stardew Valley (PC, with the Stardew Access mod) - mostly accessible with downsides being related to combat and efficiency when doing some tasks compared to sighted players. Most of that can be fixed with other mods though.
  • Plants vs Zombies (PC, with the pvz-a11y mod) - fully accessible
  • Diablo IV (all platforms) - mostly accessible, requires mental mapping in dungeons, nav assist only in overworld for now
  • Brock the Investigator (all platforms) - fully accessible w/audio description
  • Mortal Kombat 1 (all platforms) - fully accessible w/audio description
  • Slay the Spire (PC, with the Say the Spire mod) - fully accessible
  • Hearthstone (PC, with the Hearthstone Access mod) - fully accessible
  • World of Warcraft (PC, with the Blind Slash mod) - mostly accessible, sighted assistance required in dungeons and end-game content
  • World of Warcraft Classic (PC, with the SKU mod) - not in active development as seen by the notice in the description. As such, I don't recommend it to new players, but I'm putting it here just to make it clear it exists for now.
  • Crusader Kings III (PC, with a mod) - fully accessible with OCR. This means that everything can be played, but the mod relies on using live OCR instead of directly outputing text to a tts.
  • Skull Girls (PC) - fully accessible
  • Balatro (PC, with the Black Hole mod) - fully accessible
  • Any game made in Ren'Py e.g. Doki Doki Literature Club, Slay the Princess... (PC, sometimes with a mod) - fully accessible
  • Fortnite (PC, with the FA11y mod, aim assist available separately here) - playable, but a bit tricky to learn. Also requires a good computer because the mod uses machine learning for everything
  • Yu-Gi-Oh: Master Duels (PC, with the Master Duels Blind Mode mod) - work in progress, looking very promising
  • Pokémon Reborn (PC)
    • Without mods: mostly accessible, instead of navigation assistance there are audio cues for bumping into things to tell you what it is and also for figuring out where walls or empty space are
    • with the PK Reborn Access mod - improves the experience with a lot of features including proper nav assist and improving menu narration in some screens
  • Assassin's Creed Shadows (all platforms) - limited information, the game looks to be playable, but very frustrating. It may get removed from this list in the future.
  • Street Fighter 6 (all platforms) - fully accessible gameplay with features like accessibility audio cues, but with no screen reader. Works well with OCR
  • All GBC and GBA Pokemon games including some ROM hacks (emulated on PC, with the Pokemon Access mod) - fully accessible

  • Blackbox (iOS) - fully accessible
  • Soulblaze (PC) - fully accessible
  • Sequence Storm (PC) - fully accessible
  • Red and Black (PC) - fully accessible
  • Terraria (PC, with the Terraria Access mod) - work in progress, under active development

Accidentally accessible games

These are games that are playable, but without the developers or modders specifically including accessibility for us. Experience with these games may wary.

  • Most fighting games (e.g. older Mortal Kombat)
  • Rhythm Heaven (Nintendo 3DS) - accidentally playable, menu guide available here
  • 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim (PS4/PS5/Switch) - playable, more information and guide available here
  • Ninja Gaiden 3: OCR required, has navigation assist which makes it playable
  • Resident Evil 6: OCR required, has navigation assist which makes it playable.
  • The Jackbox party pack series, from volume 7 upwards including the starter pack. These are social games that work by having one player run the game and show it to others, either IRL on a tv or through a stream on a platform like Discord. The game menus are not narrated, but each minigame has unique music in the selection menu, and once a game is selected you can press up arrow on PC to have the room code read outloud. The web interface for the players is where most of the accessibility is as all visual elements, such as leaderboard changes, are audio described by screen readers. Accessibility for the specific minigames varies, but in general anything which doesn’t involve drawing, i.e. any word, trivia or creative writing games are fully accessible. Older games in the series from volume 6 down also have a few playable games, but don’t have the room code reading or enhanced audio descriptions on the website.
  • Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero - playable, but requires a lot of OCR

I have a suggestion: what if you separated the list in two parts: accessible without mods, and accessible with mods. I think this would help, especially for people who don't know how to use mods and are uncomfortable with that.

I don't think that's necessary. All games that require mods are clearly labeled as accessible "with X mod" and I think separation would just complicate things more than it should. I could separate out mods and natively accessible games like I did with accidentally accessible games if others also think that would be helpful, but I personally don't think that's necessary.

Very cool list.

A few more to add, there are probably many more I'm forgetting but these are the ones that jumped out at me:

* [1428: Shadows Over Silesia](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1228500/1428_Shadows_over_Silesia/) fully accessible with audio descriptions

* [Rhythm Doctor](https://store.steampowered.com/app/774181/Rhythm_Doctor/) fully accessible with audio description with the exception of the custom level editor. To get the accessibility as of writing you have to switch to the public beta branch, but I'm reading the game will be exiting early access and releasing officially on December 6th so It's very likely this won't be necessary then as the official release announcement specifically calls out adding audio description to remaining levels. Narration can be turned on by pressing F8.

* [Bits and Bops](https://www.tempolabgames.com) fully accessible with audio descriptions. This is another game which currently has a demo out but the full version is coming out later this month

* [Slots and Daggers](https://store.steampowered.com/app/3631290/Slots__Daggers/) can be made accessible with [this mod](https://forum.audiogames.net/topic/57985/slots-and-daggers-accessibility-mod/)

* [DawnCaster](https://dawncaster.wanderlost.games/) fully accessible with audio descriptions (which in this case means every monster you fight is described.) This game is currently available on iOS and Android, but is soon coming to PC via Steam and the developers have confirmed that version will also be accessible. Mobile games in general is a topic which could probably fill out the list all on its own.

* The Jackbox party pack series, from volume 7 upwards including the starter pack. These are social games that work by having one player run the game and show it to others, either IRL on a tv or through a stream on a platform like Discord. The game menus are not narrated, but each minigame has unique music in the selection menu, and once a game is selected you can press up arrow on PC to have the room code read outloud. The web interface for the players is where most of the accessibility is as all visual elements, such as leaderboard changes, are audio described by screen readers. Accessibility for the specific minigames varies, but in general anything which doesn’t involve drawing, IE any word, trivia or creative writing games are fully accessible. Older games in the series from volume 6 down also have a few playable games, but don’t have the room code reading or enhanced audio descriptions on the website.

Thanks a lot. I'll add all of these in the next like 10 minutes.

Hey,

Thanks for putting together this super awesome resource!

I'd like to suggest adding Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 to the list.
The sim comes with menu narration built in as an accessibility feature, but the default planes are not themselves accessible.
However, it is possible to fully operate and fly all of the Boeing aircraft models made by PMDG, such as the Boeing 737-800 or the B777-200ER using Talking Flight Monitor. This is an external program which was specifically developed to make all aircraft panels, switches and systems fully screenreader accessible.
And very recently, a new accessibility addon was released, MSFS Blind Assist, which provides access to Airbus models developed by FlyByWire Simulations and Fenix Simulations.
All of these aircraft have quite a steep learning curve, as flying them requires a deep understanding of the various aircraft systems and procedures. Fortunately, however, there are lots of online tutorials and YouTube videos explaining how all of this works, and since the accessible panels have exactly the same types of controls that sighted sim pilots have in the sim, these tutorials can be followed quite well by us blind simmers as well.
Finally, there's a community Wiki at https://bvipilots.net with a ton of accessibility-specific info, and a link to join our very active WhatsApp community.

Here are four more games for the list.

Escape from Norwood
Kilda
Firebird
Luck be a Landlord

All are accessble out of the box without any mods.

Also, a question. I bought Red and Black but can't seem to figure out how to activate the accessibility. Nowhere on the steam page does it say how, just that it can. Using NVDA but can't seem to figure this out. Can't find anywhere that says either.
Each game listed will either start accessibility automatically BTW, or the steam/game page will tell you how. I can get instructions for each if requested to add next to them in the notes to make it easy.
