Video games are popular around the world - but not everyone can enjoy them fully. Barriers in controls, presentation or design make access difficult for many people. But there are solutions: From adjustable game settings and difficulty levels to personalisable controllers.
playABLE focuses on accessibility in and around games. The new Level 5 presents games that break down barriers through innovative approaches. For example, they are very easy to control, allow the level of difficulty to be adjusted or are playable for people with visual impairments. At the same time, the new level addresses the importance of representation and inclusion of people with disabilities in game development.
We also want to develop, experiment and learn with the project: how can (game) exhibitions be made more accessible?
