Step 1 — Open your browser: Use Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Edge. Make sure your browser is updated to a recent version (see Browser Requirements below).

Step 2 — Navigate to the site: Type "zonethunder.com" into your browser's address bar and press Enter. The site should load within a few seconds on a standard internet connection.

Step 3 — Age verification: On your first visit, you'll see the Zone Thunder age verification screen. Click "I am 19 or older" to confirm your eligibility and proceed. If you click "I am under 19," you'll be redirected away from the platform.

Step 4 — Cookie preference: You'll be asked about cookie preferences. Click "Accept" to allow session cookies that improve your experience, or "Decline" if you prefer not to allow cookies. Either choice allows you to access the platform.

Step 5 — Navigate to the game: Click "Play Now" in the navigation bar or anywhere on the homepage to go to the Legion Gold Conquest game page. From there, click "Launch Game" to start playing immediately.

If you're on a mobile device, the same steps apply. The interface will automatically adapt to your screen size. On iOS, use Safari for the best experience. On Android, Chrome is recommended.

Issue: The game isn't loading or shows a blank screen.
Solution: First, check your internet connection. Then try a hard refresh (Ctrl+Shift+R on Windows/Linux, Cmd+Shift+R on Mac). Clear your browser cache and cookies (Settings → Privacy → Clear browsing data) and try again. Make sure JavaScript is enabled in your browser settings — the game requires it. If the issue persists, try a different browser.

Issue: Game audio isn't working.
Solution: Check that your device volume is turned up and not muted. Check that your browser hasn't muted the tab (right-click the tab and look for a "Mute site" or "Unmute site" option). Some browsers block audio autoplay by default — click anywhere on the game screen to trigger audio permission. On mobile, check that your physical mute switch (on iPhone, for example) is not engaged.

Issue: The game is running slowly or lagging.
Solution: Close other browser tabs and applications running on your device to free up memory. Check your internet connection speed — a minimum of 5 Mbps download is recommended. Try disabling browser extensions temporarily, as some can interfere with page performance. Clearing your browser cache often helps with performance issues.

Issue: The page layout looks broken or distorted.
Solution: This is usually caused by an outdated browser. Update your browser to the latest version and reload the page. Also ensure you're not using a browser zoom level significantly different from 100% (use Ctrl+0 / Cmd+0 to reset zoom).

Issue: The age verification or cookie banner keeps reappearing.
Solution: This happens when your browser is set to clear cookies automatically or when using private/incognito browsing mode. Zone Thunder stores your preferences locally. If you use private browsing, preferences won't be saved between sessions. Switch to standard browsing mode and allow cookies from zonethunder.com.

Issue: The site isn't accessible or returns an error.
Solution: Check your internet connection and try visiting another website to confirm it's working. If other sites load fine but Zone Thunder doesn't, try again in a few minutes — we may be performing brief maintenance. If the issue persists for more than 30 minutes, contact us at hello@zonethunder.com with details.

Zone Thunder is committed to being accessible to all Canadian adults, including those with disabilities. We build our platform following WCAG 2.1 guidelines and continually work to improve accessibility across every page and feature.

Keyboard Navigation: All major interactive elements on Zone Thunder — navigation links, buttons, forms, and game controls — are accessible via keyboard. Use Tab to move between focusable elements, Enter or Space to activate buttons, and arrow keys where applicable for navigation within components.

Screen Reader Compatibility: We use semantic HTML, appropriate ARIA labels, and role attributes to ensure compatibility with screen readers including NVDA, VoiceOver (iOS and macOS), and JAWS. All informational images include descriptive alt text, and decorative elements are marked appropriately to avoid unnecessary verbosity.

Visual Adjustments: Zone Thunder's high-contrast design (dark text on light background, bold borders, strong colour differentiation) benefits users with visual impairments. You can increase text size using your browser's built-in zoom controls (Ctrl+Plus / Cmd+Plus) without breaking the page layout.

Motion Sensitivity: We respect the "prefers-reduced-motion" setting in your operating system. If you've enabled reduced motion preferences on your device, Zone Thunder will minimize or eliminate animations accordingly.

Audio Controls: All game audio can be muted or adjusted within the game interface. Platform audio never plays without user interaction.

If you encounter an accessibility barrier on Zone Thunder or would like to request a specific accommodation, please contact us at hello@zonethunder.com with "ACCESSIBILITY" in the subject line. We review all accessibility requests as a priority.

How to launch the game: Navigate to games/legion-gold.html and click the "Launch Game" button. The module initializes directly in your browser — no additional steps required.

Using fullscreen mode: Once the game is running, look for the fullscreen icon in the game interface. You can also use F11 (Windows) or Ctrl+Cmd+F (Mac) to put your browser in fullscreen mode. Press Escape or F11 again to exit. On mobile, the game fills your screen automatically.

If the game freezes: Click elsewhere on the page to refocus, then click back on the game. If it remains frozen, try refreshing the page with Ctrl+R / Cmd+R. Your session will restart. If freezing happens frequently, try clearing your browser cache and reloading.

Audio in the game: The game's audio controls are available within the game interface itself. Look for a speaker or audio icon to mute or adjust volume. Browser-level audio controls also apply — right-click your browser tab and look for mute/unmute options.

Game controls on mobile: Legion Gold Conquest uses tap controls on touchscreen devices. The on-screen interface adapts to touch input automatically. For the best mobile experience, play in landscape orientation on smaller smartphones.
