AFB: Dawncaster shows strong screen-reader support in an RPG
Published:
In short
American Foundation for the Blind’s AccessWorld has published an accessibility review of Dawncaster, a fantasy deck-building roguelike RPG for iOS, Android, and PC. The review describes a screen-reader-accessible interface, automatic Accessibility Mode when a screen reader is detected, and spoken information for cards, tooltips, enemies, and turn updates. On PC, navigation is described as mainly arrow keys and Enter.
What makes Dawncaster interesting is that screen-reader support appears to be part of the actual play flow, not only the menus. That makes the review more useful than a plain list of accessibility settings.
