Accessibility Rating

4 – Mostly Accessible

Accessibility Comments

This app is accessible in the sense that you can accomplish the main goals but there is a sense that lots of game ambiance is missing.

Screen Reader Performance

Screen reader performance can be less than ideal even on current year iPhones.

Button Labeling

Everything that VoiceOver interacts with is laveled.

Usability

This app is useable if one is willing to tolerate a linear existence.

Other Comments

This app using the direct touch approach to accessibility in that it turns the screen into a direct touch area and forces a rather linear exploration. Most of the time, attempting to manually move the focus does not work. That being said, it is still a fun and addictive game, with daily rewards for opening the app and significant carrots to encourage additional gameplay.
These thoughts come from someone who is not typically interested in this card deck type of game. I still like it a lot.
