The short answer

Steam currently lists camera comfort, color alternatives, custom volume controls, play without timed input, Save Anytime and subtitle options. Demo patches separately confirm music help and that stars are not required for casting. These are declarations and patch facts, not a hands-on accessibility audit.

The most concrete assistance information is about music

The official 0.466 patch says an extra layer of music help was added in the options and explains that no stars are necessary to cast. The June patch again describes the minigame as optional. Those details are useful if timing challenges are a concern.

They do not establish an exact toggle name or prove that every action can be completed with a particular assistive device. The practical next step is to inspect the current demo’s options and tutorial on your own setup, with the no-star rule in mind.

Store labels are a starting point

The six categories in the table come from the current official Steam response. We preserve their names and avoid expanding a category into a feature that was never specified. For example, subtitle options do not automatically establish a particular maximum font size or a dyslexia-specific font.

The same caution applies to color alternatives and camera comfort. These labels may be helpful when choosing what to test, but this wiki has not certified contrast inside the game, screen-reader support, remapping coverage or all camera behavior.

Time pressure has a documented design response

Eastshade says time freezes during events and every evening, and later patches add menu and shop pauses. This can change how the game feels compared with a constantly running day-night cycle, but it is not proof that every task lacks timing constraints.

Read the time guide before assuming the clock is always running or always paused. The public demo remains the most direct way to assess the actual pace, text and input experience on your own equipment. Keep the game version with any accessibility feedback so that changes can be tracked accurately.
