- Phase 10: World Tour, Uno! Mobile and Skip-Bo Mobile have received the Beyond Colors update.
- Colorblind friendly decks have been added in the update.
- Colors are represented by basic shapes.
Mobile game developer Mattel163 is releasing colorblind-friendly decks for three of its card games. The new Beyond Suits feature includes specially designed card decks that use shapes like squares and triangles to represent traditional card suits. These shapes allow color blind people to easily identify the designated color of each card.
Phase 10: World Tour, Skip Bow Mobile and UNO! Mobile all received new comprehensive update. Mattel163 is striving to make its titles more inclusive and accessible, and this update marks a step in the right direction. You can enable the update by tapping your avatar in-game to access your account settings and enabling the Beyond Color deck under card theme options.
According to the Cleveland Clinic, approximately 300 million people worldwide suffer from color blindness. Through new deck options, Mattel163 is trying to break down barriers and make UNO! Mobile and other titles accessible to a wide range of players.
To develop Beyond Color decks, the developer worked with gamers, including those with color blindness. The symbols used for these decks are the same across all three titles, making it easy to master. Mattel has also stated that it aims to make 80 percent of its games portfolio colorblind accessible by 2025.
UNO! Mobile brings a classic card game in which each player tries to be the first to remove all their cards from mobile devices. In Phase 10: World Tour, you’ll compete to complete each phase as quickly as possible while Skip-Bo offers a fun twist on solitaire.
UNO! Mobile, Skip-Bo Mobile, and Phase 10: World Tour are available through the App Store and Google Play. To learn more about Mattel163 and the Beyond Color Update, check it out. Official website. You can follow them to learn more and stay updated with the latest news. Facebook.
