Our commitment
Hex is a color puzzle game, but color is never the only way to play it. We want Hex to work for players who use a screen reader, play with a keyboard only, are sensitive to motion, or find the default text or colors hard to read.
What Hex does today
- Keyboard play. Every board — Swap, Memory, Bloom, Spot, and every Journey map and level — can be played with a keyboard alone. Arrow keys move a focus ring between tiles (rows up and down, along the row left and right), Enter picks up or swaps a tile, and the focused tile always shows a visible outline.
- Screen readers. Boards describe themselves as you move around them: which tile has focus, and whether it is out of place. Dialogs and sheets are modal, keep keyboard focus inside them while open, and return focus to what you were doing when they close. Toasts and results announce themselves.
- Larger text. Settings → Larger text increases the size of small print across the game.
- Reduce motion. Hex follows your device's "reduce motion" setting automatically, and has its own switch in Settings. Either one calms the honeycomb background, particle effects and other animation.
- Color assist. Settings → Color assist offers alternate tile palettes for players with color blindness, so a hex's shade is never the only way to tell it apart.
Testing
We check new screens with a keyboard, a screen reader, and automated accessibility checks before they ship. Accessibility is ongoing work: as we add features, we test them the same way.
