Charity hopes new outlet will "spread awareness about accessible games"

SpecialEffect, the UK based charity that helps the disabled gain access to games, has launched an iPhone app.

"Everybody at SpecialEffect is delighted at the SpecialEffect App and would like to say a big thank you to Shane MaCafferty for donating his time and expertise," said SpecialEffect's Nick Streeter.
