adaptING
One goal of our "World Piece Project" initiative is the involvement of young changemakers in the creation of unique, personalized, adaptive board game pieces so that "all may play". We have just taken our first steps in this journey. Please check out our first designs (a Trouble piece with a tactile "R" for "Red" and another with a Braille "R" for "Red". We are incredibly excited about the potential for this work...please contact Rich Lehrer ([email protected]) if you would like more information
In our first foray into creating adaptive game pieces for visually impaired board pieces, Caroline created this Red "Trouble" game piece with the Braille letter R (created by positioning small domes on the piece). Access the file for the piece below and let us know what you think!

In an alternate approach to adaptive pieces for visually impaired players, in this design, Caroline added tactile "R" to her Trouble piece. Download below:
