Well, they are interactive games. I'm not sure if there really would be an
accessible equivalent. Perhaps making the content of the games as some sort
of text-based study guide, or maybe convert some of the games into
forms-based interaction, but you pretty much loose the interactive/game
portion when doing that.

I suppose one thing that could be done is to add proper audio to everything.
Some of the games I tried didn't seem to have any audio. That would at least
help with some sight impairement issues.
