Mattel163 enhances accessibility for its mobile card games with the launch of "Beyond Colors," a groundbreaking update introducing colorblind-friendly decks for UNO! Mobile, Skip-Bo Mobile, and Phase 10: World Tour. This inclusive feature replaces traditional color-coded cards with easily distinguishable shapes: squares, triangles, circles, and stars, representing the standard colors. This innovative approach ensures that players with colorblindness can fully enjoy these popular titles.
The update, now live, streamlines gameplay for approximately 300 million people worldwide affected by colorblindness (according to the Cleveland Clinic). Enabling the Beyond Colors deck is simple: access your in-game account settings via your avatar and select the new card theme. The consistent symbol system across all three games ensures a seamless and intuitive experience.
Mattel163 collaborated with colorblind gamers to develop these inclusive decks, prioritizing ease of use and consistent design. The company aims for 80% of its game portfolio to be colorblind-accessible by 2025, demonstrating a significant commitment to inclusivity.
These popular mobile games—UNO! Mobile (the classic card-discarding game), Phase 10: World Tour (a phase-completion challenge), and Skip-Bo Mobile (a solitaire-style variation)—are readily available on the App Store and Google Play.
