Hi there. Fenrir is a console only screen reader correct? Best regards. Francisco. Sent from Mail for Windows 10 From: Jude DaShiell I play a few rogue-like games. When I do that, usually it's with espeak on a console. I never found orca to add anything to the experience of rogue-like games either. Tiles in those games have no dictionary entries that would allow them to properly speak as a character moved over or into them. The text versions of those games show ascii characters which once you learn it is possible to play those games. stone_soup or crawl same game two different names I think is a worthwhile game to play if you can get it working. If the graphics version ever gets going, it may have extra sounds playing as a player plays the game like alteraeon does in mud experience. Any games like stone_soup that actually work all of the way in orca I'd be interested in installing and playing. I have to try some more directed experiments with fenrir in the rogue-like gaming environment in graphical and console environments before I'm prepared to give a review on fenrir.
