Abstract(in English) A wide range of assistive technologies to support the visually impaired persons have been developed to enhance the activities of daily living (ADL). However, enhancing not only the ADL but also the quality of life (QOL), such as an entertainment game, is needed to relieve some of their stress. Such games should be developed from the following two viewpoints; One is that the visually impaired persons are on an equality with the sighted persons at the game whether they win or not. The other is that the game must be played without visual information by the players, and, as such, must be played using only auditory information as one of the alternative perceptions of the visual cue. In this report, we developed Japanese backgammon type game played by four players, so-called, Japanese rotation shogi, using the speech-output interface. In the experiment, four players, composed of two sighted and two visually impaired, were evaluated by the Csikszentmihalyi's flow.
