with the latest version the app works really well with voiceover. all buttons are labelled, you just need to pay attention during battles, because when your units get wounded, it's best to retreat to prevent losses.
during battles, the enemy is shown first.

VoiceOver Performance

VoiceOver reads all page elements.

Button Labeling

All buttons are clearly labeled.

Usability

The app is fully accessible with VoiceOver and is easy to navigate and use.

Other Comments

this game is full of surprises in the civilization genre. starts pretty easy, but later on you will need to manage many different resources, allocating workers to different jobs to get better gear, or to get a better army.
it's currently consuming most of my free time, I can really recommend it.
the in app purchase is not necessary to play, it'll help later on though, plus you'll support a great developer!
he added accessibility in two days and is currently getting feedback in the tread I made in the audiogames.net forum at
https://forum.audiogames.net/topic/35382/home-quest-hidle-adventure/
his name there is jan.cs in case you want to send feedback. there's also an email on his website.

I'm impressed by the accessibility update though I could play easily before it :)

By tyler chambliss on Saturday, June 27, 2020 - 03:41

I can't tell what my resource levels are. I see food and wood, then a bunch of numbers but no indication of what's what.

By matheus rheine on Saturday, June 27, 2020 - 03:41

In reply to by tyler chambliss

hey! when it says food and wood, the first resource announced when flicking will be food, and wood will come right after it.
i've suggested the addition of headings to a future update to improve even more resources viewing, but in the current state it's definitely doable.
you don't have to focus on the details like how much you're getting from jobs, prodUction, population, etc.
what matters the most at first is the final number, to indicate if you can build something, or get a new army

By Queenofeagles07 on Saturday, June 27, 2020 - 03:41

what to do after you have healers? It doesn't say train 10 healers, for example. I attack more and more people and get resources. I also collect and harvest souls but I don't know what to do :D

By matheus rheine on Saturday, June 27, 2020 - 03:41

if you check the logs, the last messages will guide you to the next objective. the heallers will heal your wounded units during battle.
you can find them in the army tab, by going to the support category.

thanks for the support everyone! i've sent this link to the developer and he appreciates every download, purchase and rating, since this is the only way to boost future development of more fixes and content, and more great games.
enjoy the game!

from souls

In reply to by matheus rheine

I know, I have 2. I had 4 but they died. Now what is the objective of the game? It doesn't say anything like "train 10 healers and win 10 battles" I was asking it

By Roxann Pollard on Saturday, June 27, 2020 - 03:41

What a nice way to keep myself occupied if caught somewhere and have to weight. Of course, that's certainly not the only time I'm playing this. Enjoying the resource management. Bought the Gold package so I can take advantage of all features.

By Jared on Saturday, June 27, 2020 - 03:41

I just got the sole well and am told to hunt wild animals to fill it up. How do I do this?

hey!
to fill the soul well you must kill enemys in the world tab. when you kill enough units to fill it, you can infuse, then by assigning shamans to the job you will go through three stages before harvesting resources. they are: molding, growing and fruiting.
from time to time you can poke each soul well to gain a boost, so it'll grow faster

By vue on Saturday, June 27, 2020 - 03:41

helloo lol i kinda forgot what comes with the gold package anyone knows ? and what does it do ?

By matheus rheine on Saturday, June 27, 2020 - 03:41

the gold package allow you to build more than 3 soul wells and supports the development of future projects and possible content expanssions.

By Roxann Pollard on Saturday, June 27, 2020 - 03:41

Currently, I have 46 population and 40 army. I am almost done with the Shaman quest. My problem is that I keep running out of food. I have allocated my loggers, etc., to maximize the farmers. I have 15 houses but cannot build more to increase the population. Any ideas?

hey roxann! you're probably missing stone or wood in order to get more population and food. i recommend checking the treasury tab sometimes to see if you're getting a constant income of the resources you need for what you're trying to achieve.
at times you're going to sacrifice some jobs to replace with others, then when you have more farms and houses you can change it again.
hope it helps

By Roxann Pollard on Saturday, June 27, 2020 - 03:41

Thank you for the suggestion, Matheus. I was doing some of that. I need to do more. Thanks.

By matheus rheine on Saturday, June 27, 2020 - 03:41

In reply to by Roxann Pollard

I wish you the best of luck and power, i'm sure you'll get the hang of it!! later on you'll have to deal with new resources and units with different requirements, but with the same principles.
if you have any other questions i'll be glad to help!

By vue on Saturday, June 27, 2020 - 03:41

hi how do i upgrade to a plantation ?

By Mike_NZ on Monday, July 27, 2020 - 03:41

I have the same question as above. I have unlocked plantations, but see it requires glass to upgrade from a farm. This is not currently a resource I have, and not sure how to get it. Is it something I can make with souls? or do they produce jade alone?

By matheus rheine on Monday, July 27, 2020 - 03:41

In reply to by Mike_NZ

hey! keep killing everyone in the world tab, you will shortly unlock the glassmaker job and also by killing another group you'll find a settlement location with sand.

By Firefly on Monday, July 27, 2020 - 03:41

I am really loving this game so far. One question I have is when I leave the game alone for a little while does my storage still fill up? Other than that I love everything about the game and will continue to conquer the world! LOL

By matheus rheine on Monday, July 27, 2020 - 03:41

In reply to by Firefly

hey Firefly! sure, if you leave the game for a few days it'll still gather resources while it's idle. have fun!

By matheus rheine on Monday, July 27, 2020 - 03:41

here comes good news directly from the developer of the game!
he posted it to the audiogames forum, check it out bellow:
Hi everyone! Just letting you know I'm still reading this thread and your feedback has been great! Not only for accessibility, but for the game in general. Very cool that the game got posted on applevis, which directly lead to a bunch of new downloads, and a few good reviews. Currently working on the next update, which has a lot of bug fixes, and will continue to add more improvements for voice over & talk back. For example, tapping on job buttons will read how much are assigned and free, also got headings to work for resources, and swiping on a resource will give you a quick overview on how much you have, and how much percent of your storage is full. Also looking into making notifications better.

Most of you are probably almost through the game, but it will hopefully still be nice for new players

By vue on Monday, July 27, 2020 - 03:41

lol is it me or ogre kingdom is kinda hard ? getting my army slaughter any suggestion ?

By SuperSilly on Monday, July 27, 2020 - 03:41

Hi thanks for introducing this nice game.
I came across the following issues:
1. the items browsing in the treasury tab are not logically organized, for example, swiping from left to right, sometimes items of different resources are spoken in incorrect order.

2. I just unlock the jade, but don't know how to deal with it only untill I read the above comments, s it possible to make something like a help, so that we can search for jade to know how to generate this resources.
3. on the souls tab, there are some buttons namely evenly, molding, growing, fruiting, don'
t know what are their purpose. and there is no hints.

By vue on Monday, July 27, 2020 - 03:41

i think the dev is working on it on the new update and yes theres some bugs. i also have a question for the dev. is it possible to selll or delete our army class like warrior etc ?

By MusicLover99 on Monday, July 27, 2020 - 03:41

So I just unlocked the soul wells for the game and created one, defeating the shamans as well. It tells me to hunt beasts to fill up the well. I've done that and gotten enough souls to even get to the growing stage. But every time I even leave the app, I come back and it doesn't save a thing and I'm back before defeating the beasts. Has anyone experienced this? It's disappointing because I love this game and would love to play more, but since it's not saving I can't get any farther. Thanks in advance for the help and the replies!!

By SuperSilly on Monday, July 27, 2020 - 03:41

Why the upgrade to plantation button is dimmed and cannot perform action?

By francis on Monday, July 27, 2020 - 03:41

oh! another text game.

not my type of thing

By vue on Monday, July 27, 2020 - 03:41

to build the plantation you need glass the reason why it's dim because you need glass.

By vue on Monday, July 27, 2020 - 03:41

came upon a bug on the marsh land pact. every time i try to attack it just sends me to the world to select a place to attack. does anyone have this bug as well ?

By matheus rheine on Monday, July 27, 2020 - 03:41

guys, i'll past the changelog from the android version which has been updated and accessibility gets better and better, i'm so impressed!
the game deserves a place in the hall of fame for the developers effort in my opinion.
- Night owls rejoice: Added Dark Mode!
- Building & Recruiting: Lack of resources is now highlighted in red.
- Improved Town Switcher UI
- Improved Accessibility for Screen Readers throughout the app
- Fixed some screens not updating properly
- Fixed units becoming alive again when retreating.
- Stability improvements

By matheus rheine on Monday, July 27, 2020 - 03:41

i'm not sure, since it needs to be approved by apple to become available. i'd say 2 to 3 days if i had to guess, could be sooner.
i'm just saying it's amazing because the ios and android changes are identical, and all the screens are working better from what i tried on android.
especialy treasury. you won't have to scroll like crazy. the resource name and ammount will be condenced in one line.

By vue on Monday, July 27, 2020 - 03:41

have a question do i have to beat the marshland pact to unlock the building for ornament ?? oh and btw the stage for marshland pact is buged

By matheus rheine on Monday, July 27, 2020 - 03:41

In reply to by vue

when you go back to the world screen it's because the enemy defeated you and the rest of your army retreated.
i can't remember exactly how to get the ornaments, but one way is harvesting soul well.

By jan-cs on Monday, July 27, 2020 - 03:41

Hi, dev here! Glad you are enjoying the game, the feedback has been really helpful. There should be an update coming shortly with more voice over adjustments. Let me know if there is anything else I can improve.

vue: You're army is probably too small and retreating, you'll need a bigger army.
MusicLover99: The update should fix it, I also send you a message, please contact me.

By matheus rheine on Monday, July 27, 2020 - 03:41

thanks so much for joining applevis as well Jan.cs! already said you're awesome, but will say one more time!
the update is live for the weekend! enjoy everyone

By vue on Monday, July 27, 2020 - 03:41

By Sabrina on Monday, July 27, 2020 - 03:41

I like what I have read about this game but would like to know.Is this a long game or is it. game which can be completed in a couple hours?

By Brad on Monday, July 27, 2020 - 03:41

In reply to by Sabrina

It's an idel game, meaning you have to do a task then come back to it a couple of minutes or hours later.
