FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Accessible online community adds yet another great game to their
service. The company All inPlay (www.AllinPlay.com), which
is dedicated to providing fun and friendship for all regardless
of how well one can or cannot see, just added the world's first
ever accessible online Texas Hold'em to its suite of games.
Shrewsbury, MA - August 16, 2006 - All inPlay, an
accessible online community focused on fun and friendship for all,
visually impaired and sighted alike, today announced the release
of the world's first accessible version of Texas Hold'em.
"From day one All inPlay has been about letting
the skill of the player determine the outcome of the game, not whether
or not they could see the screen," said Cofounder and CEO Jeremie
Spitzer. "With our non-gambling version of Texas Hold'em, anyone
who loves to play and make new friends now can, even those who use
specialized assistive technologies like a screen reader." By
focusing on the social aspect of games, it's no surprise that All
inPlay's largest demographic is women over the age of 40.
All inPlay is the first company dedicated to uniting the
sighted and blind populations through online games. "Every
time we set out building a new game we always made sure the graphics
were top notch," said Cofounder and Community Director Paul
Silva, "otherwise the games wouldn't have been able to attract
as many sighted players it has." With 15% of its members sighted
and 25% from outside the US, All inPlay is well on its way
towards bringing fun and friendship to all.
About All inPlay:
All inPlay is a unique online community where
blind and sighted people from around the world gather to play and
interact as equals. At the heart of this community are games that
provide a fun, friendly setting where people can celebrate old friendships
and create new ones from across the globe. Recently All
inPlay's games and technologies have been incorporated into
job training, computer literacy, and youth programs for the blind
and visually impaired.
