AT for Gaming

We then asked our community for their perspectives, which they so generously shared, about the games they play and how it helps them.

AT Chatter Sam

"My card holder is super important for me playing Phase 10, Skipbo, Flux Zombie and Dr Who, and Munchkins.

I also like trivia, quiz and word games but don't need any particular AT for those."

AT Chatter Ian

"I like to play Canfield Patience as an aid to neuro plasticity after my stroke.

Some of the driving and pinball games are good for eye hand coordination and pain distraction.

I like Simon to help with memory and coordination."

AT Chatter Bob

"If I get caught in an overwhelming panic attack, I play online Bridge. 🙂

It is the only thing I've found that can eventually draw my mind out of the panic and anxiety."

AT Chatter Liesel

"I play the beautiful Sky: Children of the Light which is non-competitive and has a culture of authentic connection, kindness and friendship around the world.

I’m trying to use some adaptive gaming gear: Xbox adaptive gaming with the Logitech add on buttons but it’s insufficient to play this incredible game."

"When I play computer games like Baldur's Gate 3, I like to use my noise cancelling headphones to focus and catch all the atmospheric sounds so I can immerse myself in the game and get a little escape. I also prefer to read the captions for dialogue in the games rather than listen to all the speaking parts."
