Hello, I found this game a while ago but I wasn't sure of its accessibility. The game is essentially a resource managing game that has elements of castle building and pvp. Don't worry, the pvp is not that bad, you will loos some resources and units but it doesn't really matter. I know that most of these kinds of games are usually completely inaccessible however this one is mostly accessible. My only problem is that some of the elements aren't labeled. For example, the buildings on the main screen aren't labeled so you have to go into the building cue and upgrade them individually which gets very annoying after a while. The only major  problem is that the resources aren't labeled so you have to just figure out which ones are which. The developer has responded to accessibility issues in lords and knights and I am hopeful that they will respond to me. If this game sounds interesting please help me ask for labels on some of the elements. Thank you for reading.

Sounds fun, is the game also for android?

2019-07-19 02:58:24

I am not sure seeing as I don't have  an androyd device. Also, the tutorial is very annoying. I am not sure how I did it. Also, unfortunately, I think the only way to contact the devs is through the ingame contact field.

If i have to have someone sighted do it for me, that's gonna suck, most people around here don't like it when i ask them for help, so meh. I'll check the play store though.

And it doesn't seem to be on android. sad.

2019-07-19 04:22:26

I wonder why it isn't on androyd because all of their other games are on androyd as far as I know.

2019-07-19 15:46:02

What's the developers name? i may do a developer search and see if I can find it that way.

Is this another Lords and Knights mod like celtic tribes?  on the one hand while this might make accessibility easier given that lords and knights is accessible, on the other I wonder what is new in the game.

I'd be interested myself if indeed the game is more about the building and resource management than the pvp, that was why I didn't get further in celtic tribes or lords and knights myself, since both seemed heavily based on invading other players and taking their castles/villages.

With our dreaming and singing, Ceaseless and sorrowless we! The glory about us clinging Of the glorious futures we see,
Our souls with high music ringing; O men! It must ever be
That we dwell in our dreaming and singing, A little apart from ye. (Arthur O'Shaughnessy 1873.)

Alright, found my old I pod touch 5, lets hope it's supported.

2019-07-19 17:53:01

Ok, it is supported. downloading now. i found the developer on android, and all of they're games are there, minus this one, saddly.

on the website, it says this.
Fortress Kings is a free-to-play strategy MMO exclusively for iOS. The player gets to experience a believable medieval world with fantastic real-time 3D graphics and a unique gameplay. The expandable fortress as well as the strategical map are filled with the vivid hustle and bustle of beautifully animated characters and the authentic world is inviting to get explored.
Yeah, cross platform.

@Dark, the pvp isn't like lords and knights at all because you can't loose everything. Believe me that has happened to me more than once. I like how they talk a lot about the emersive 3d graphics and it is quite accessible.

2019-07-19 23:59:38 (edited by sightlessgamer 2019-07-20 00:47:15)

sorry for double posting. @Ty The dreaded tutorial is upon you. Haha!@Dark, as you were asking about new content, This game has over 30 more buildings than lords and knights. Also, you can get items and use them, you can battle npcs for thees items and much more.

2019-07-20 00:46:17

@14, yeah. it finally installed on my old ipod, I had to delete like 2 apps, and now i'm about to try it. oh god.

2019-07-20 00:53:02 (edited by sightlessgamer 2019-07-20 01:02:01)

For the tutorial you may have to turn off VO and tap in the middle of the screen. This is the only time you have to do this as far as I'm aware of.edit: I'm sorry, I mean on the map screen with the immage in the middle. I should have clairified this.

2019-07-20 22:44:30

I couldn't get past the map screen, i'm going to try tapping the middle of the screen, thanks!

2019-07-21 03:27:25

Can you please upload a screenshot of the map screen? I got someone to help. He said that the map is random so he will have to see it. Also if you could use the object finder button you could get to the settlement.

2019-07-22 00:29:38

Hi man, why are you here mostly double post?

2019-07-22 01:29:34

I am sorry about that. It is a bad habit and I need to do something about it. I will probably delete some of the posts and put the relevent information in a more important post.

2019-07-22 04:16:22

i got past the screen. And the game is pretty fun so far.

2019-07-22 20:59:48

While a lot of the game is playable, it really needs some more labeling. I could not get past the tutorial, and as a result don’t know what to do because I canceled it.  I get it that the numbers at the top of the screen are supposed to be your resources, but which one is which?  Has anybody tried contacting the developer and asking them to improve accessibility?

2019-07-22 22:44:19

That is what I was hoping to do. If anyone wants me to write a guide I will gladly do so. Anyway, Yes, the game needs a lot more labeling but maybe seeing as the devs have responded to accessibility issues it might be doable.

2019-07-24 02:27:23

I'll wait till this one is more accessible. lol Thanks anyway for the heads up on this. Sounds great!

well they have made lords and knites accessible so i can't see why they wouldn't do the same here. i haven't downloaded this yet i'm sort of on the fense.
