I have just discovered Perpex City, but before I rush out and buy some cards, I need to clarify something. I am deaf and am wondering if this will matter when playing? Doing a search on some topics, I noticed that sound does seem to have a bearing in some clues. Will this affect my playing enough to spoil it? I have very little hearing and rely on lipreading instead (no signing though). (I did see some threads appeared to be on a "deaf" trail so these may be good for me!)

Any advice please?

Ps I am from the UK.

Hey Shelle,
With ARGs in general, being deaf should not cause major inaccessability to the game - even where some clues are sound based (for example some morse code hidden in a song, or phoning Ascendancy Point Security as we will be doing tomorrow afternoon), all information learned from these clues will be posted here by someone, explaining the clue, the route and the solve, or transcripting any messages. To be honest, you are only at the same disadvantage as someone playing the game from work with no speakers on their computer - essentially none, since it is a team game Smile

Hope that clears stuff up

Jeb
