Accessibility

What the site does to be usable by as many people as possible, and where it still falls short.

The site

• Every page can be used with a keyboard, and starts with a "Skip to the content" link.
• Pages are written as real text, with headings and descriptions for every game, so screen readers can read them.
• Text sizes follow your browser's zoom, and pages fit phone screens without scrolling sideways.
• Adverts never play sound and never cover a game while it is being played.

The games

• Every game can be paused, usually with P or Esc.
• The controls for each game are listed on its page, under the game, before you start.
• Most of the small games work with a single button, a mouse or a touch screen.
• Games are visual and most need sight to play. The bigger 3D games need a reasonably recent computer; on slower machines they lower their own detail.
