Accessibility Notes
There's a simulation mode you can use in these battles to get a preview of the outcome. This not only eases the level of complexity but also ensures you don't have too many unexpected outcomes. This, along with the variety of characters and abilities, makes for engaging and varied tactical battles.
There are a lot of plot lines, dialogue and characters to track. Main story segments are fully voice acted, but the exploration sections are not. The game lets you rewind dialogue at any point. You can also pull up reminders who who each speaker is, to reduce the cognitive load. You can control the speed of text and also switch to an auto mode so the conversations proceed without clicking. Dialogue text is quite clear (although not 1/20th of screen height), but other text and user interface is quite small and can't be changed.
The music signals progress in the battle and indicates whether you are winning or losing. You can disable the depth of field effect to ease motion sickness issues. The game relies on discerning Blue and Purple movement squares that was a colourblind problem in the demo, but a visual marker was added to the purple squares in the latest update.

Getting Started
We've documented 6 accessibility features for Getting Started in Triangle Strategy which deal with what support is offered to get started with the game. This includes customising the experience when you first open the game via any onboarding processes it provides as well as tutorials and other assistance when you first start playing.
Assistance Getting Starting
These features aid your play of the game in terms of cognitive load on learning controls, dealing with pressure and coping with the environment and challenges.
Tutorials: There are helpful tutorials and instructions on how to play. Information is provided in a timely manner, with appropriate level of detail.
Reaction-Time Not Critical: Individual game actions don’t need quick reactions, or there are settings to lower the requirement for quick reactions. This means you don't need to quickly press a button in response to an on-screen prompt, target a fast-moving target or skillfully complete a scenario against the clock.
Low Pressure: Game tasks aren't time-limited or there's a low-pressure mode. This avoids the pressure of being put on the clock for overarching missions, or failing tasks because you didn't reach a destination in time.
Assistance For Progressing
These features aid your progress through the game offering different ways of maintaining your progression.
Assisted Recall for Characters: The game provides reminders about character identity during play. This includes pop-up images and bios for character who is speaking.
Assisted Recall for Narrative and Dialogue: The game enables you to review the history of conversations or provides highlights of the information you gather in a form you can review.
Save Progress Anytime: The game automatically saves progress or you can save any time. This doesn’t mean you never lose progress, but it does mean you can stop whenever you want (without having to get to a save point) without losing progress.

Reading
We've documented 4 accessibility features for Reading in Triangle Strategy which deal with how much reading or listening comprehension is required, how well the game provides visual and audible access to the text and whether subtitles and captions are a good fit for purpose.
Reading Level
How much reading is required to play the game's main path or story and how complex the language is. The presence of voiced characters doesn't reduce this requirement, as it's recorded as a separate datapoint.
Extensive Complex Reading: Extensive reading required. The quantity and complexity of reading is suitable for someone who loves long books and enjoys extended dialogue or narrative descriptions.
Subtitles
All Speech Subtitled (Or No Speech In Game): All spoken content has subtitles, or there is no speech in the game. This means there is no requirement to hear spoken dialogue or narrative to play the game.
Captions
Speaker Indicator: Textual captions indicate who is speaking (or there is only ever one person speaking). This can also be indicated visually in the game with character icons or placing text in speech bubbles next to the person speaking.
Voice Acted
Some Dialogue is Voice Acted: Some of the game dialogue and narrative is voice acted. This reduces the pressure on reading all the dialogue text, although not everything is provided audibly.
