Encourage players to accomplish actions and/or keep them informed of what is going on.

Visual clarity

⁠

These will help everybody and particularly players with visual disabilities.

Minimum recquirements

Make sure interactive elements stand out (e.g. contrast, VFX, etc.) against surrouding visuals. If for a design rationale you don't want them to stand out in the player experience, allow players to have some flexibility around them (e.g. make them stand out or not).

If relevant to your game, help players find their way with clear maps, guidance, and paths directly in the environnement.

Sensory sensitivity

⁠

These will help everybody and particularly players with sensory disabilities.

Minimum recquirements

If haptics are used, players have the option to turn them off. And as for sounds or color, do not only rely on haptics to convey critical information.
