LOW VISION GAMES

Board Game Geek has two lists of games that have/might work well for those that don't see well (like my grandmother).

Some of the suggestions will not work - Skipbo is too small, Dungeons and Dragons is not grandma-appropriate, and brail-ize-ing cards would be insulting.

But there are other game suggestions that might work
I list them here as a resource for anyone else looking for games to play with one or more low vision players.

Othello (maybe too small?)
Medici
Hera and Zeus (2 players)
Babel
Cloud 9
Diamant (up to 8 players 1-20 min. to play a game).
Coloretto (looks a little small??)
Typo
Euphrat and Tigris
Acquire

I'll be adding annotations as I can.
Personal stories, comments, and suggestions are welcome!
