Blind man playing and completing video games using sound only.... (with video)

Terry Garrett, a completely blind 23 year old mechanical engineering student from Colorado Springs, has figured out how to play through and beat Abe's Exoddus, multiple times.



Using from a solid stereo sound system, save-anywhere and the occasional helpful description from his brother, Terry figured out the entire game relying upon the game's sound design as a descriptive tool to navigate the game world. After learning how it all worked, and playing the game through a few times over, he plays the game near-flawlessly. This is an interview with him, and some of his gameplay footage.
