Star Powers: an online space card game for blind players
A space card battle inspired by the board game Star Realms. You start with a small deck, buy ships and bases of four factions from the trade row and try to bring your opponent’s influence down to zero.
What the game has
- Eight modes: duel, free-for-all, hunter, hunter first blood, hydra (teams), emperor, raid and challenges against a boss.
- Almost 400 cards from the base set and expansions, commanders, gambits, missions and 20 scenarios.
- Computer opponents of four levels: novice, average, strong and master.
- Online play: rooms, lobby chat and game chat, spectators and a time limit per turn.
- Ratings for every mode, separately for games between people and games against the computer.
- Everything is designed for screen readers: cards and events are read as text, with sounds, music and detailed rules. Sighted players get pictures that the screen reader skips.
- The whole game is translated into all ten languages of the site; opened from this page, it starts in English. The language can be changed in the game settings.

Other players see your nickname, and nobody sees your login.
