SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom Rehydrated – Deaf/HOH Review
♫ Ohhhhhh! Who lives in a pineapple under the sea? SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS! Absorbent and yellow and porous is he! SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS! ♫ I am an adult with two graduate degrees in English and literature. Two of them. And yet, here I am giddily reviewing SpongeBob, with the theme song having been stuck in my head […]

Deaf/HoH Review – Call of Duty: Warzone
Well. COD Warzone is a game that exists. It’s a Battle Royale. That’s about all I can say about it. It’s certainly not Fortnite. Fortnite got a perfect score on here for a reason: Its deaf/hoh accessibility is hands down the best in the genre, among the best in games as a whole. The sound […]
Deaf/HoH Review – Predator: Hunting Grounds
I’ve got to be honest here, folks. I got Predator: Hunting Grounds with my Sony Rewards credits just so I could have it to talk about for my column in VG 24/7 because this month was pretty light on major releases. I fully expected it to be one of the many games I play solely […]
Deaf/HoH Review – Final Fantasy VII Remake
In the long awaited remake of the 1997 Final Fantasy game, you play as Cloud, a mercenary that has joined Avalanche, a group of eco terrorists, out to save Midgar from corporate greed. Before we get into Deaf accessibility, I have a few questions. Namely, how does Cloud actually use his sword? He has child-sized […]
Deaf/HoH Review – Resident Evil 3 Remake
Game reviewed on PS4. This review won’t be much of a departure from Elizabeth Garcia’s review of the demo, so instead of simply reiterating everything she said, I’ll just add a few things that stood out to me. The game begins with a dream sequence. Jill is turning into one of the zombie things. She’s […]
Deaf/HoH Review – Persona 5 Royal
Persona 5 Royal is more or less a director’s cut of Persona 5, initially released in the West in 2017. It is a turned-based RPG that focuses on your ability to develop relationships with other characters. While a lot feels familiar, the game’s additions flesh out the story more. Additionally, this new game also offers […]
Deaf/Hoh Review- Half-Life: Alyx
Time for me to do my first review of a VR game here on CanIPlayThat. We all know that the VR platform is problematic at the very least when it comes to general accessibility of the devices as well as the games given its such a new space. We will probably go into more thoughts […]
Deaf/HoH Game Review – Resident Evil 3 Remake Demo
Capcom released a demo for the upcoming Resident Evil 3 Remake. The game, much like Final Fantasy VII Remake and Capcom’s Resident Evil 2 Remake, is more like a reimagining than an outright remake. The game takes place at the same time as Resident Evil 2 but instead of following Leon and Claire, follows Jill […]
Deaf/HOH Game Review – Ori and the Will of the Wisps
Game reviewed on Xbox One I don’t like this game. I know this is probably a very unpopular opinion, as everyone and their mother seems to be in love with it, but for me, it’s one disappointment after another. Every review I’ve read heralds it as being better in every way from the first in […]
Deaf/HOH Game Review – Final Fantasy VII Remake Demo
Final Fantasy VII Remake is less of a remake and more of a reimagining of the classic game that was originally released in 1998. The remake, like the original game, follows Cloud Strife and a group of eco-terrorists, AVALANCHE, who set out to save the planet from the corrupt Shinra megacorporation. Shinra is harvesting and […]
Deaf Game Review – Bless Unleashed
Game reviewed on Xbox One Find hand pain info at the end of the post. Bless this mess. Truly. It’s a gorgeous game that has everything I want in an MMORPG. Gathering, outfits, side quests, mounts, outfits, different races and classes with a cat-people class! But friends, it’s such a mess. Accessibility wise it’s […]
