Accessibility

Made to be played by everyone.

We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA across the site and apps.

What works today

  • Every page, button and form can be used with a keyboard, with a visible focus outline and a “Skip to content” link.
  • Pages, clues, the Board and your account are readable with a screen reader; buttons and controls are labelled.
  • Text meets contrast guidelines, and no text is smaller than 11 pixels.
  • If your device asks for reduced motion, the turning Earth stops and animations are switched off.
  • Distances follow your region, in metres or feet, with a switch to change it.

What we’re still working on

  • The 3D globe itself is visual. We’re working on ways to describe where you are on the map, and on clues that don’t depend on sight alone.
  • Translations into more languages.
