Accessibility Statement
Last updated: August 13, 2026
We want The Chains to be usable by as many people as possible, including players using a keyboard, a screen reader, or browser zoom/high-contrast settings.
What we've done
- Semantic HTML and standard, native form controls throughout: buttons, links, and inputs use real
<button>,<a>, and<input>elements rather than custom widgets, so browsers and assistive tech handle them the way players already expect. - Every icon-only button carries a text label for screen readers.
- The whole game is playable with a keyboard: searching for and adding players, opening panels, and navigating menus.
- A light theme is available in addition to the default dark theme (toggle in the top nav), for players who find one easier to read than the other.
- Rarity tiers and other status indicators pair color with text or icons, not color alone.
Where we're not there yet
This is a good-faith effort, not a certified audit. We haven't run a formal WCAG conformance review, and a small site built quickly will have gaps we haven't found yet (contrast in a specific spot, a focus state that's hard to see, a screen-reader label that could be clearer). We take reports seriously and fix what we can.
