I was speaking with one of our players who happens to be blind, and he told me about the software he uses. He mentioned that he likes JAWS, as described at www.freedomscientific.com.

So, if you've got a friend who has trouble with the graphics-intensive games and would like some assistance seeing or hearing text, consider the software available at www.freedomscientific.com. :)
