About Spoken21

Spoken21 is an audio blackjack game with casino, shuffling, and game sounds. Standard blackjack rules apply. The game uses four screen buttons. Each one occupying one-quarter of the screen. The upper left bets, the upper right deals the cards, the lower left hits, and the lower right stands. A flick down gesture also hits and a swipe left/right will stand.

All cards played are shown and spoken. A running balance is kept and the high score is saved. Double down may be made on any two cards and gives one additional card while doubling the current bet. Bets of $1, $5, $25, and $100 are allowed.

Surrender is permitted using the upper right button when the dealer shows 9-Ace and loses one-half your bet. An insurance bet of one-half the current bet can be made using the upper left button when the dealer's up card is an Ace. This game uses one deck and shuffles after every hand. The splitting pairs is not allowed.

The app is completely accessible with self-contained speech, sounds, and descriptions. Spoken21 is an entertaining and challenging card game for all.

When this game starts, it says there are 4 invisible buttons. I've tapped the top left part of the screen several times, but can not place a bet for the life of me. I've even tried with VoiceOver both enabled, and disabled. Just for context, I'm holding my iPhone 6 with the home button facing down, and the lock screen button is on the right side, and the volume up and down, and mute buttons are on the left side of the phone. So, how are you even supposed to place a bet?

The buttons cover the entire screen. So the top left button is not really the top where the status bar is but just try the upper half on the left side. Also it may be locked when the instructions are given. To stop the speech use two fingers and tap the screen once. I apologize for the difficulty you have had. Please continue to let me know how you are getting along with the game. Also I would mention that this is a single one finger tap.

Thanks so much for trying the game.
