Blindfold War

Category

Description of App

Blindfold War is a fully accessible classic card War game for both sighted and visually impaired people, designed for rapid audio play.

Each player starts with a deck of 26 cards. The game takes place through a series of battles in which each player reveals one card. The player with the
highest card wins both cards. If both players reveal a card of the same rank, a war ensues, giving each player a chance to win many of their opponent's
cards.

The cards are not visible; instead, you play by listening. Tap the screen to play your next card, and the computer plays its next card too.

Blindfold War tells the cards you and the computer played, and the number of total cards in your hand. You can customize the game to your liking: how much
extra information is spoken and how quickly it is spoken.

Blindfold War was suggested by several blind gamers who enjoyed Blindfold Crazy Eight and Blindfold Solitaire.

There is a STARTER PACK in-app upgrade that unlocks all settings features to give you more variants of War, and lets you play more than one game per day.
We'll be adding more War-like games as in-app upgrades.

Hello all. My friend is playing the game. It seems she is almost done, but she is not able to finish it off. She gets the following:
"You have no cards left. I have 47 cards. Your discard pile top card is queen of clubs, my discard pile top card is six of spades."
She does not have any option to draw a card or play a card. When she does three finger swipe up to get back to the main menu, the game is stil there, she can click "resume" button to get back to the game, but she does not know how to get to the end of the game to get rid of all cards.
Please does anyone know workaround for that?
Thank you in advance.

It would probably be better for her to start a new game.
