Great app and educational but you have to complete a level before you close app or else progress is lost and you have to start level over.. Don't start a new level until you have a lot of time on your hands.

At a certain point it’s just not fun anymore. A challenge is one thing, just making it pointlessly difficult is another. I was interest in touring the levels and reading about the history, guess I can’t do that now.

But there are 3 issues with achievements: ‘time attack’, ‘collect all letters’ and collect all the ‘&’ that are refusing to pop-up or acknowledge you got them. It’s frustrating considering they aren’t easy to get and I want to officially 100% the game. Collecting everything and beating all the levels (especially that maddeningly hard special level) were fun, but I’d like to get rewarded for my efforts with the trophies/achievements the devs put in the game as it gave me all the other ones so I’m not sure why it won’t give me the 3 I mentioned since I completed all requirements.

This game is interesting, beautiful, and fun (for those who aren't crazy about typography). However, it doesn't deserve five stars in my book due to a major flaw. The app crashes a lot, and it gets more frequent as the game goes on. I'm at the point where I can't load the Helvetica level because it crashes every time (Helvetica isn't even a complicated typeface!). Otherwise, the game is great. P.S. Get a copy editor!

What a beautiful game - a beautiful, frustrating, and altogether wonky way to spend time. I've been putting off reviewing for a while now because I've been vacillating between 5 stars and 1. As a typophile, the gorgeous graphics and the (somewhat disjointed and poorly spaced) histories are incredibly engaging and I look forward to each new font and font developer. Finally a game aimed at me! 5 stars! However, I am no gamer and it took me quite some time to figure out what the hell was going on with the controls. Ditto for the levels. After muddling though, it was a relief to read blogs and reviews complaining of the same control issues. This needs to be addressed but because progression is possible, it's not critical. What really prompted me to finally write this review was/is the absurdly frustrating tracking of levels. Unless I am missing a simple "save" button or command, this game is unable to track my progress accurately, thus causing much frustration and waning interest. I've gone though 1/2 a level and stopped then was brought back close to the same spot with all my collections intact upon resuming. On other levels (Clarendon) no matter how far I progressed, each time I resumed play, I was brought back to the beginning and had lost all my letters, ampersands and asterisks. CRAZY making! While this really should be a two until the bugs are worked out, it's a three because of its sheer beauty.

And I wanted to give this game 5 big fat stars. Very fun, engaging and beautiful graphics. The music is so peaceful and the game is so tricky at time. Great fun!
