摘要
A novel serious game for learning Greek and English Braille code is presented. Its novelty lies in that it offers its users the opportunity to learn and practice Braille and at the same time to test their knowledge through playing a game. As it is indicated by related research a good command of Braille code is a crucial factor that amends the quality of life of individuals with visual impairment; Therefore, it is meaningful that both their family environment and their trainers have a good command of Braille code. The software aims to help such people to acquire and maintain a level of knowledge of Braille code. The developed serious game is a mobile learning application and runs on mobile phones and other portable Android devices.
