So I just downloaded the game, Audible kung fu and I am really enjoying all the sounds all the atmosphere and the style of gameplay actually, I like all of their games honestly. I do have a question though when it says to go to the main menu screen and go to the upgrade screen to upgrade my weapon whatever it’s called. I’m not seeing an option to level it up. I am using talk back on a Motorola phone running android 15 I believe? I’m unclear as to the number.#Accessibility #Gaming #PrudenceInteractive #Fun #iOS #Android#Fediverse
Lately I’ve realized that most of the games that really keep my attention are text-based ones.
Right now my two favorites are EmpireMUD and Stellar Aeon.
EmpireMUD scratches the classic MUD itch: exploring, crafting, character progression, and a world that feels alive and constantly evolving. It’s the kind of game where I can log in, explore a bit, discover something new, and slowly build my character over time.
Stellar Aeon is very different but just as satisfying. It’s a text-driven space exploration and management game where you discover systems, expand influence, and watch a simulated universe unfold. It really hits that “systems interacting with systems” sweet spot that makes me want to keep experimenting.
I also enjoy incremental games (things like Cookie Clicker, Trimps, ComputeClicker, etc.), but lately a lot of them feel very similar once you’ve played a bunch. I still enjoy them, but they don’t hold my attention the same way they used to.
I’ve also looked at programming games and automation games, which seem like they should be perfect for me, but most of the ones I’ve found so far aren’t very accessible with screen readers.
For context: I’m totally blind and use a screen reader, so text-based games tend to work best for me.
Interestingly, a lot of audiogames actually don’t work well for me either, because many rely heavily on spatial audio or reaction timing.
I’m definitely open to games that normally rely on audio if they have mods or modes where most information is available in text.
Navigation can also be tricky. I can handle spatial navigation if a game provides helpful tools like:
Some MUDs do this really well, but many games unfortunately don’t include those kinds of tools.
So I’m curious:
If you enjoy text-based games, MUDs, incremental games, simulation games, or anything similar, what are you playing these days?
I’m always interested in discovering new worlds to explore.

Irgendwann eskaliere ich, wenn es weiter Artikel oder Videos zu #Gaming unter #Linux gibt und wieder mal der Satz raus gehauen wird "EA hat keine Lust Linux zu supporten und sein Anti-Cheat auf Linux anzupassen."
Leute, der Anti-Cheat läuft im Kernel, die Linux Architektur lässt das ganz einfach nicht zu. Das ist ein essentieller Teil der Sicherheits-Architektur von Linux.
Was auf den Kernel zugreifen will, wird nicht laufen.
Also müssen diese Spiele komplett neu gemacht werden.

🏁 Phoenix Raceway Recap | Strong Day in the Desert for ETHiX Racing
ETHiX Racing rolled into Phoenix with a two‑car lineup and left with one of its most solid team performances of the season so far. Both Steven Carlile and Tyler Krawczyk fought through loose conditions, heavy traffic, and a caution‑filled afternoon to score top‑10 finishes in Race 4 of the Owltone Designs Cup Series.
🔥 Steven Carlile – P6 (Tied for the Points Lead)
Carlile started P6 and spent most of the day battling a loose race car, but smart adjustments and an aggressive final‑stage strategy helped him climb into the top 10. He was one of the first drivers to make his final green‑flag stop, cycling forward late to secure a strong P6 finish.
He now sits tied for the championship lead with the #88 of Tyler Belanger.
⚡ Tyler Krawczyk – P8 (Up to 12th in Points)
Krawczyk started deep in the field but quickly showed speed, finishing P10 in Stage 1 and an impressive P5 in Stage 2, collecting valuable stage points. Despite suffering some damage mid‑race, he and the team made the right repairs and adjustments to keep the #48 competitive.
Running long on the final green‑flag cycle paid off, helping him secure a strong P8 finish and jump up to 12th in the standings.
📈 Momentum Moving Forward
Phoenix threw everything at ETHiX Racing—loose cars, cautions, damage, and strategy swings—but the team responded with grit and execution. A P6 and P8 result, plus a share of the points lead, marks a strong step forward as the series heads to Las Vegas.

love how we've had the technology for joysticks that don't succumb to stick drift for years and years but instead of using it every major gaming company just keeps putting out controllers that become borderline unusable within 1-2 years. i love e-waste. i love capitalism.
Sadly, popular Linux gaming utility Lutris is now AI slop and in response to people expressing their concern, the lead maintainer decided to remove all the attributions for the AI submitted changes so no one can fork it before the changes were made. Oh, also it probably renders the license complete garbage as well too.
At least we now know why it's become notably worse over the last few months and it saves me from writing up some Github issues.

Slay the Spire II is even better with a friend https://thever.ge/mDDs #Entertainment #Analysis #Gaming #Report
Psychological relief is important.
I had recently discovered the game Enshrouded, which can be played single player, with a private group, or you can host a game for the public. You can play your same instance single player or multiplayer, and switch back and forth.
It has a Breath of the Wild meets Dragon Quest Builders vibe. My friends and I like it. It rewards coordinated team play. I have a level 8 character I run myself, and a level 5 to go with a buddy's level 5 and things are easier for our team play that for my higher level solo.
This is nice in that I can play it with people who are friends and I don't need to open it up further, maintaining my rule on multiplayer games of any kind (only play with people you can punch in the face. it forces civility).

It is a #gaming rrecommend from me.
