<\/div>

OVERVIEW<\/span><\/span><\/h2>
<\/div>

A game of strategy and planning where the objective is to remove all gems from the board, leaving only one. We ensured accessibility through multiple control methods, not just eye gaze technology.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>

<\/div>

Created as part of a suite of games for prestigious UK gaming charity Special Effect, Solitaire Gem Quest can be controlled with your eyes, a mouse, a gamepad, a switch interface, a keyboard, and any combination thereof!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>

MAGICAL AESTHETIC<\/span><\/span><\/h3>

The traditional marbles have been replaced with beautifully designed, sparkling orbs, giving the classic game a fresh and dazzling look.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

PRECISE AND CLASSIC CONTROL MODES<\/span><\/span><\/h3>

Select the orb directly, or use the directional controls. This control scheme option reduces the need for fine motor skills and makes the game much easier to play with gaze tracking technologies.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
