Accessibility
Accessibility is part of the game experience, not a separate help document. Wurdella includes options for larger text, stronger contrast, reduced motion and clearer links, while the game itself supports physical-keyboard play, visible focus and letter feedback that does not depend on color alone. The settings below change the interface on this device immediately and are saved for future visits.
Choose any combination that makes Wurdella more comfortable to use. These controls affect the interface rather than merely describing available features.

Wurdella supports physical-keyboard letter entry during play. Interactive elements such as links, buttons, inputs and selects can be reached with the keyboard, and visible focus styling helps indicate which control is active. This is useful both for players who prefer typing and for people who do not use a pointer device.
If you are learning the game for the first time, the How to Play Wurdella guide explains the board, guesses, clues and letter feedback in more detail.
Correct, misplaced and incorrect letters are not intended to rely on green, yellow and gray alone. Wurdella also uses additional symbols and screen-reader descriptions for tile states. That makes the information more robust for players with color-vision differences and for people using assistive technology.
The core meaning stays the same: a correct-position letter is fixed, a misplaced letter belongs elsewhere, and an incorrect letter can generally be ruled out unless repeated-letter logic changes the interpretation.
Screen-reader announcements: turn changes, clues and important round messages are exposed as live status updates where supported.
Dialogs and focus: login, clue confirmation and result dialogs are designed to keep focus within the open dialog and return it afterward.
Reduced motion: Wurdella respects the operating system or browser reduced-motion preference, and the setting above can also enforce reduced motion on this site.
Visible focus: keyboard users receive a strong focus indicator on common interactive elements.
Larger text: the preference panel can increase text size across the interface for players who find the default scale uncomfortable.
Clearer links and contrast: site preferences can make interactive text more visually distinct and increase contrast where supported by the interface.
Accessibility needs are highly individual, so there is no single “accessible mode.” One player may want larger text and reduced motion while keeping the default contrast; another may prefer a physical keyboard, shorter four-letter rounds and no animation. Wurdella's difficulty levels can be combined with accessibility preferences, so visual or motor comfort does not have to determine vocabulary difficulty.
For example, a player with an advanced vocabulary can still choose Expert while increasing text size, and a younger player can use Kids while enabling stronger contrast. Accessibility settings and game difficulty solve different problems.
The same accessibility preferences apply when moving between major Wurdella experiences. You can use them while playing Wurdella Daily, local multiplayer or a Challenge a Friend match on separate devices. In social play, it can also help to agree on pace before the match starts so no player is pressured to type, read or respond faster than is comfortable.
Yes. The game supports physical-keyboard letter entry and keyboard navigation for interactive controls. Visible focus styling helps show where keyboard focus is located.
No. Letter states use additional symbols and accessible descriptions so green, yellow and incorrect states are not communicated by color alone.
Yes. Wurdella respects the device's reduced-motion preference, and the accessibility controls on this page can also force reduced motion for the site.
Yes. The accessibility preferences include a larger-text option that is applied to the interface on this device and saved for later visits.
Yes. Use the Report a Problem page and include the page, control, device, browser and assistive technology involved when possible so the issue can be reproduced.
Please report the exact page, control, device, browser and assistive technology involved when possible. Specific details make accessibility bugs much easier to reproduce and fix.
