ICAT Playdate — Open the Gates Gaming debuts Cognitive Access Tools
October 24, 2025
After months of playtesting, Open the Gates Gaming successfully released their cognitive access tools to the gaming community at PAX East 2025. We will share the process of developing, testing, and releasing these tools to a wide audience, highlight the valuable connections we've built with industry partners along the way, and discuss the next steps for the project. We are honored to share these updates first with the ICAT community who has supported us before we exhibit at the American Musicological Society and Society for Music Theory Joint National Meeting and PAX Unplugged in November.
