Color blind option for RISK players and territory colors

IDEA: Add a settings option for color-blind players to easily distinguish between green and yellow, and blue and purple colour schemes used for players and map territories.

The colors blue, red, yellow, black, white, gray, gold, silver should all be good colors that I should be able to tell apart.

Any idea when this option might be made available?

They obviously don't care, should be a simple fix and they've had numerous updates.  I've all but quit playing the game now due to the difficulty.

 

I'm glad others brought this up, as red/green color blind the yellow, green ,and orange are extremely similar. I agree if each color had a corresponding pattern, or for me I have less issues if the colors are basic, maybe an option to remove the filter and use just primary colors that may help. I love the game but would love it more if it was easier to see. Thanks!
Anythibg that levels out the playing field for all is welcome
Great idea. Constant struggle in most my board games and now online. Red Black White Yellow Blue ... possibly silver or a pink thats way off the shade of red.
I am colorblind. the colors are all far too similar! Im glad this is being looked at.
Thank you thank you thank you. Just started playing and was surprised this wasn't already in the game. The colors are indistinguishable. Looking forward to the fix!!
Yes! I struggle with this as well and would love to see an option to select our own colors.
Would each players army have its own image?

That's a great idea. At times, it's difficult to distinguish the color variations in different lighting. What would the color blind option include? Would it include armies being striped in different ways?
Glad this problem is being addressed. I'm moderately colorblind and I've had this problem on many versions of the computer Risk game. I can usually figure it out but it definitely takes extra time. Perhaps patterns could be used in conjunction with color. For example stripes, checker, dotted lines, stipple etc. Perhaps there could be more than one color/pattern scheme. Thank you, Marcus

I love this idea. I can only play games I start because I can only distinguish red. Can't tell yellow from green or blue from purple. And only play 4 people cause if I play more then orange comes into play.

I don't have this issue, but I just wanted to say thanks for thinking of everyone and working on this! This is a great game everyone should be able to enjoy :)

We'd add a setting for players to enable colour blind option on their device. 

We'd post an image to this thread with the revised player and territory colours for feedback to ensure there is sufficient contrast between problematic colour combinations. –Lee@SMG
