    I used to play this years ago and gave up because of a glitchy high level. My son just recently started playing and I remembered how fun it was so I downloaded it, not even imagining it would still be glitchy this many years later. Never assume. I literally cannot get past the first tutorial. I grabbed the asterisk, and got to the introduction page, and...stalled. Pages don't turn but I can *hear them move. The right touch no longer moves the periods. The continue button is dead. I've downloaded it, then uploaded it four times. Bummer that they haven't fixed the bugginess yet

  • Won’t go past the first level

    If you’re a graphic designer, young or old, this is a phenomenally fun way to explore the history of typography. Gorgeous visuals, great and simple historical anecdotes. Obsessed!

    I played this game on steam years ago, and then again on switch when that version released. It’s fun and informative. Sadly, this version of the game is broken. It has so far frozen in the tutorial level 5 times in a row. Please fix.

    I played this game as a kid on my sisters iPad and absolutely adored it, mega fun way to spend my free time and such a whimsical premise. However I am currently experiencing issues after redownloading it in which after collecting my first asterisk the game will not let me advance, very frustrating since I know this is a great game, perhaps the game needs to be updated but it would be really cool to play it again.

  • Mostly fun

    Overall it is an entertaining game with a creative landscape of fonts and text. Every once in awhile I’d get stuck and it became down right frustrating. I love a good challenge and made it all the way to book 8, but finally had to quit when I couldn’t get past a part. Maybe I was just missing a simple solution, but reading other reviews, sounds like it’s common for everyone. I can understand making some letters nearly impossible to get for 100% completion, but shouldn’t have this much difficulty on the standard play through with no way to bypass.
