Thanks for your reply. I love playing these sorts of games but colours have always been an issue where colour is the primary mechanism of the game. So some games will just be out of reach and I’m ok with that. I wouldn’t want you to over complicate or ruin a nice UI to cater for my needs! Greens, browns and reds will always be an issue. Even blues and purples are hard too.

Hey, I'm not sure you'll see this but I wanted to let you know that I added a color blind assist mode based on another comment's suggestion of adding patterns/textures to the tiles. In the top-right corner is a hamburger menu where the mode can be enabled.

I'm not 100% if this is the right solution for your needs but I'd be interested in hearing if the update helps at all.

Thanks again for the feedback!

At work we had a red/green system for deploys of code to production. We would use a red or green dot in a messaging system. I had to ask if we could use the words stop and go inside the circle which we did and that helped a lot of people. In my company there are a lot of Colourblind developers!
