And when you have done that, you have created an Accessible Player Experience. The Accessible Books Consortium (ABC) is a public-private partnership led by the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). Only when a player has access and can have a chance of overcoming the challenges in the game can they have the player experience you want them to have. Providing for this diversity in levels of challenge is the second layer of the APX Triangle, and our Challenge Patterns help illustrate different ways designers have adapted challenge for accessibility. Players need to be able to adapt the game in a variety of ways to make it so challenges within the game are not unreasonably hard or impossible to overcome.
If there is no way to manage the challenge, then players will have to stop playing your game even after all the work you put in ensuring they had access. The enemy is too fast or the puzzle is too hard, or the content is too intense. But games are challenging and for some players, those challenges are overwhelming even after they have the perfect access settings. Once a player has access, they need to be able to play the game itself through interacting with what we call in general terms, the game world, whether this is stacking falling blocks or exploring a distant mountain range. Our Access Patterns address the problems in this layer. Ensuring this access, represented as the bottom layer of the APX triangle, is the first step to providing an APX, without which, many players with disabilities are excluded from your game. In other words, players need to be able to sense (see/hear/feel) the output of the game and to provide input to the game (click/tilt/speak). This means they need to be able to perceive what is going on in the game and to take control of actions in the game. Before anyone can play your game they need access to the game.
