Accessibility Statement

Our commitment

Baazi Club aims to meet or exceed WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards across both the Android app and the baaziclub.net website. We treat accessibility as a quality bar, not a checklist.

What we support

Android app

• TalkBack — Full support across every screen, with proper button labels, content descriptions, and focus management.
• Screen reader voice announcements — Every game event (card played, score change, turn change, milestone reached) is announced via the app's own TTS, separate from TalkBack.
• Adjustable speech rate — Configure TTS speed in Settings.
• Adjustable animations — Reduce-motion toggle for users sensitive to visual effects.
• Adjustable sounds — Independent toggles for game sounds, haptic feedback, and voice announcements.
• High-contrast UI — Dark theme with red accent that meets contrast requirements; visible focus rings on all interactive elements.
• Large touch targets — All primary buttons meet or exceed Android's recommended 48dp minimum.
• Hindi and English — Voice announcements available in both languages.

Website

• Semantic HTML with proper landmarks (header, main, footer, nav).
• Skip-to-content links on every page.
• Keyboard-accessible navigation and focus management.
• Sufficient color contrast (targeting WCAG AAA where possible).
• No carousels, no auto-playing audio, no popups.
• Plain language wherever possible.

How games are designed for accessibility

Each of the four games in Baazi Club has been designed with non-visual play as a primary use case:

• Bhaabi: Every card in your hand has its full name announced ("Ace of Spades, double tap to play"). Trick history is read aloud after each round. Full rules →
• Ninety-Nine: Running total and your token count are announced before each turn. Card values and effects are spoken when selected. Full rules →
• UNO: Top of pile, your hand, and color choices are all spoken. Wild card color picker has audible options. Full rules →
• Hand Cricket: Each ball is narrated ("Bowler picked 3, batter picked 5. Five runs! Score 17 for 1"). Score, overs, wickets, and run rate are accessible via TalkBack. Full rules →

Known limitations

We try to be honest about what is and isn't perfect yet:

• Some UI animations during gameplay (six animation, century celebration) are visual-only — they don't add information you'd miss, but they exist for sighted players. They can be disabled in Settings.
• Voice chat audio quality depends on your network and the other party's device.
• Some less-common third-party Android screen readers may not work as smoothly as TalkBack. If you use one, please tell us.
