Bored and happen to be good of hearing?

There is this excellent Android App called Blindscape made by Gavin Brown. It’s a story told entirely through sound and it is rather captivating and frankly, a cool concept. You play as the main character - a man who narrates the story - by clicking your screen to open doors or navigate the character. There are zero visuals involved - might as well play with your eyes closed.

The only shortcoming is that it is so... well, short.

(I should probably also say that it has implied violence given that the main character was made blind, rather than born that way; but it’s literally one short “scene” and then the game moves on and is completely violence free from then onward.)

So I just played the game app Blindscape. Highly recommend it to anyone. It's a really short game, but it's based solely on audio. I was immersed in it instantly. It felt like I was really there. I loved it!

Review: Blindscape; Explore a world in the role of a blind protagonist

Hi! Today I'm gonna write a review for an Android/Apple app: Blindscape. It's a very short game or app I don't know how to label it since it's too good to be just a 'game'. It puts you into the shoes of a person who's blind and trying to escape from a city of misery. 

I got really lost at first because I didn't know what to do and there's no instructions at the start of the game like the usual. The app requires you to plug in your earphones for you to clearly hear the narration. The moment you got your earphones plugged on your device and placed on your ears, the narration starts and the story begins. On your device's screen when you'll only see a blank or black screen, don't panic your device ain't fucking up, it's part of the app because you're supposed to be blind and depend solely on your auditory system. The game progresses and you'll be given tasks to do for your blind escape. At the bottom left there's a 'hint', it'll tell you what to do, clicking it won't do harm so feel free.

I'm not going to say everything in here, it's a lot better when you experience the app on your own. Go download the app now and see, feel and hear the life of the blind.

Full length video of my Circus work, Blindscape.

As it is half sensory experience, it doesn't translate to video very well.. But you get the idea - Immersion, acrobatics and play!
