When I thought of minimalism, I thought of removing the entire visual experience and leaving only sound – essentially making you blind. It turns out I wasn’t the only one who thought of minimizing graphics to near non-existence without going the text adventure route. Here’s a rundown of the games I’ve found so far in which limited vision play a role. Feel free to link in the comments more games in which limited vision is a mechanic, I’d love to play more takes on this!

• You Must Escape
• Out of Darkness
• Blind
• Come No Closer (this one’s a bit on the edge, since you do get a flashlight and there’s no downside to using it)
• The Blind MazzzZZZZe of Colors
• Blind guy Vs Zombies
• BatWorld
• BlindSight (another flashlight game, but the flashlight does play into the mechanic)
• Escape
• Conversion (my game)
