For everyone else, the game is fully compatible with popular screen readers and can be played with a number of different input methods including keyboards and accessibility shortcuts. 1.

Tips and Strategy You can understand how Brailliance plays kind of like a blind Wordle. However, you will quickly run into some major differences. Remember the following as you play: a. Always look for how many braille dots you need. Swap letters based on the dots, unlike in Wordle where you just swap letters to form similar words. b. Just start typing! Don't worry about being accurate at first. You will get a feel for the dots as you play. c. Don't be afraid to use grayed-out letters! Especially if it helps you remove possibilities from the board. d. There is no penalty for being wrong. Keep trying!
