Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
There are currently two presets of color themes: default and no bright background. Unfortunately there are no presets for colorblind users, giving them a considerable and unfair disadvantage.
Solution you would like.
Two additional color themes since there is not just kind of being colorblind:
- Protanopia & Deuteranopia for red/green color blindness
- Tritanopia for blue/yellow color blindness
- And optionally something addressing the complete lack of color vision (grayscale)
That would help these users to play the game.
Describe alternatives you have considered.
Using 24 bit color codes so you have a greater range of color. This would require a terminal which supports it but most already do. The greater range of color would make it considerably easier to find distinguishable colors.

Research direction
Review the existing default and no-bright-background presets and the game's color-theme selection entry point; the issue does not identify files or tests. Done means colorblind-friendly presets for red/green and blue/yellow color blindness are available and usable, with grayscale considered as an optional addition.
