What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · May 14, 2026
This is a replacement parts kit for APH's tactile Game Kit, providing the non-braille components — spinner overlays, index cards, a dice shaker cup, and storage box — that enable people with visual impairments to participate in tabletop games using adapted formats. It's designed for students or adults who are blind or have low vision and want to play games independently or with sighted peers without relying on visual-only game components. The kit is a replacement/spare for the original APH Game Kit (catalog 1-08440-00), so it only makes sense to purchase if you already have or are familiar with that system — it is not a standalone game. Note that this product is listed as discontinued by APH, so availability may be limited or stock may not be replenished.
