Probably not what you were waiting for, but here's an important update regarding #HearthstoneAccess: hearthstoneaccess.github.io/…
I'm not a braille reader myself, but perhaps @loravara can provide some additional information that might have been missed in the thread.
Games like these are why I need to learn Braille, at least enough to recognize 52 standard deck of cards... This game would actually be a great fit for Quentin C's Playroom.

A new version of #HearthstoneAccess has just been released. From now on, you can always find the release notes here: hearthstoneaccess.github.io/…
Yes, I was one of the two members representing the Union of the Blind and worked closely with the company that developed it as a consultant :D
Oh look, it's the quarterly @Facebook @Messenger redesign that destroys accessibility for screen readers! Having Table HTML elements for the messages must be a brilliant idea. Also, nobody cares about Landmarks, so they're all gone now. #accessibility #a11y
Spectrum access has AD tracks without the movie audio for a handful of titles and that provides the best experience. Wish all of them had AD tracks without movie audio.
I would love to have this feature so I can also enjoy the surround audio tracks as they are meant to be played, without audio ducking for the audio description. A. Lot of action sequences are pretty lame due to audio ducking when you are watching on a surround setup.
As a Clone Wars and Rebels fan, today was an amazing day! Looking forward to the future of Star Wars. #TheMandalorian #CloneWars #StarWars
