What a great exercise in understanding the way type transforms. Tien-Min Liao must have put in a lot of time and had a lot of patience to get such well formed letters.

Seriously, this is the last typography game of skill (for at least this week). Made by designer Ian Obermuller, Fontroduction provides a great entry point to understanding the elements of a font (i.e. anatomy, weight, contrast, and spacing), a basic history of different styles, and a quiz to test your skills. Of all of the games that I have posted recently, finishing this one is easily the most rewarding. So finish it!
Happy Friday!

Just when you thought you were good at kerning:
The makers of PearBudget and the soon-to-be Monotask, a website that blocks time-wasting websites (watch your productivity soar), bring us Cheese or Font! Show off your true typography prowess by discerning font from fancy cheese (not as easy as you think, e.g. Carolingia, Montasio).
Watch out, there are 268 questions. You might be busy for a while (I still haven’t finished).

Method of Action, a soon-to-be website that aims at peer-to-peer education on “internet entrepreneurship, design for programmers, and home gardening,” launched KernType, a kerning game that tests your typographical might. Become a master of kerning and brag to your friends; avoid work for hours! I dare you to beat my score of 88 (probably not that difficult)!
Also, any website that combines internet entrepreneurship and home gardening must be legit.
