Hi, The three-finger double-tap silences speech, but it doesn't turn VoiceOver off. This means the VoiceOver gestures are still in effect. This is handy, for example, if you want to record a voice memo and you don't want VoiceOver to be recorded. You can silence speech with the three-finger double-tap, and then do a two-finger double-tap to start recording and another to stop.
If you configure triple-click Home to toggle VoiceOver, it turns VoiceOver off completely. The gestures are the ones any sighted iPhone user would use, and your game will work properly.
