I’m 38 and I’m just beginning to get set up for gaming and I’m just wondering if there are any Quadriplegics out there that can give me a list of games that would suit a quadriplegic. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

    Hi @welly19ster and a warm welcome to the community! Which console do you use?

    I wonder if there is any assistive technology that could help with this? I'll tag @Ryan_Assistive to see if he has any suggestions. :)

    Thanks everyone for getting back to me, really appreciate it. I’m using a PlayStation 4 at the moment and thankfully I’m set up with some games and because as you all know there’s a lot of games out there and you wouldn’t know if there suitable for me and what I’d really love to know is has anyone ever played a PlayStation game that was accessible.

    Im trying to put together a list that I can choose from.

    Thanks a lot guys.

    It very much depends upon what genre of games you like @welly19ster. I have quadriplegic CP and I have been playing video games since the days of the Spectrum ZX81 and Atari. I struggle with X-Box controllers so I have stayed with Playstation.
