Mattel163 is taking a significant step towards inclusivity with an exciting update that promises to enhance the accessibility of popular card games for all players. They are introducing colorblind-friendly decks in UNO! Mobile, Phase 10: World Tour, and Skip-Bo Mobile under a new feature called Beyond Colors.
What Is Beyond Colors?
Beyond Colors is a game-changing update designed specifically for the estimated 300 million people worldwide who experience color blindness. Mattel163 has thoughtfully redesigned the traditional card colors, replacing them with easily distinguishable shapes such as squares and triangles. This innovation ensures that all players can effortlessly differentiate between the various cards.
Activating the Beyond Colors feature in Phase 10: World Tour, Skip-Bo Mobile, and UNO! Mobile is a breeze. Just tap on your avatar within the game, head to your account settings, and toggle on the Beyond Colors deck under the card theme options.
To ensure the effectiveness and user-friendliness of these new symbols, Mattel163 collaborated with gamers who have color blindness. This initiative aligns with Mattel’s broader commitment to accessibility, with a goal to make 80% of their games colorblind accessible by 2025.
For this update, Mattel163 worked closely with experts in color vision deficiency and the global gaming community. They explored solutions like patterns, tactile clues, and symbols to ensure that color isn't the sole method of distinguishing cards.
The shapes introduced in Beyond Colors are consistent across Phase 10: World Tour, Skip-Bo Mobile, and UNO! Mobile, making it easy for players to adapt once they learn the system in one game. You can find these updated games on the Google Play Store: UNO! Mobile, Phase 10: World Tour, and Skip-Bo Mobile.
