Accessibility
- The developer's accessibility page says the whole game can be played with VoiceOver on iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
- Every button, skill, item, stat, and shop offer is meant to have a VoiceOver label, while decorative artwork is hidden.
- Screens are organized with headings, and related information is grouped to reduce unnecessary swiping.
- Popups and reward screens can be dismissed with the standard VoiceOver escape gesture, and temporary events are spoken aloud.
- Version 1.3 adds better headings, dialog semantics, queued announcements, stable purchase focus, filters, and an Enter amount option for exact quantities.
- Supports larger text on iPhone/iPad, dark interface, sufficient contrast, and reduced motion.
Known limitations
- The strongest practical VoiceOver documentation is for iPhone, iPad, and Mac. The game supports Apple Watch, but the developer's accessibility table does not separately confirm VoiceOver on Watch.
- The free part includes 14 of 30 skills, the first three adventure zones, and up to 8 hours of offline progress. More skills, zones, a 24-hour limit, and extra storage require in-app purchases.
- This is a screen-reader-accessible interface game, not a pure audio game. The music is atmosphere, not the main navigation method.
- Norwegian language support is not confirmed.
Price/status
Free with in-app purchases. The App Store lists full skill unlock at USD 3.99, extended idle limit at USD 2.99, extra storage at USD 1.99, and a complete bundle at USD 7.99.
Available on the App Store as of September 2026. Version 1.3 improved VoiceOver after detailed feedback from a blind player.
