Does anyone have any ideas as to how I could get some help monitoring the behaviour of an inaccessible handheld game over time?

Another thing I thought of, at least to combat the timeout issue, was to somehow record a long video of me playing it (or at least trying to play it), but we still have the questions of screen size and access and camera stability, plus the additional issue of not even knowing whether I'm aiming correctly.
Even if I manage to get something, I'd still need to find some way of getting it transcribed/described.
I do know there are many blind people who are a lot more advanced than me in these sorts of areas.
Does anyone know of any way at all I can pull this off, Or am I in a fantasy world with this?

So far I have been using Aira, but it rarely gave any meaningful results.
I know nothing about cameras, but seems it was down to one or more of these four possible reasons:
1. the size of the screen itself (very small, maybe about an inch or so). Not sure if a phone camera is really designed to capture that small a space.
2. No way of holding the phone steady. I can hold it with my other hand, but I always seem to have a tendency of moving it rather unhelpfully.
3. Buttons are right next to the screen, so I end up unintentionally covering it.
4. To top it all off, the game imposes a ten second timeout before being booted out of the screen you're on.

For the past five days, we've had to go to the bomb shelter several times a day to protect ourselves from Iranian missiles. This morning, they sent 20 missiles closer to our apartment than any of the previous attacks. One of the Missiles landed in the next town and created a great big hole.
This is what it sounded like from our kitchen window.
The recording Starts with the air raid sirens, and then just before they finish at about 90 seconds, you start to hear the interceptions.
12:34:56. What a great time to check at.
Andre LouisDid you find a post from a follower that you really liked? If so, just boost it. That way other people have the opportunity to like it too.
It's such a simple thing and many gloss over it.
With non-algorithmic posts here, it's the only way it will show up for new people as there's no promotion or advertising.
Like it, boost it, pass it on.
So simple. So Fedi.
