type-WISE | Play with Typefaces

Let this app WISEN you up. (We’re going to use that pun a few more times, so hold tight)

Can you tell Helvetica apart from Arial? How about Times New Roman from Baskerville? Did you know that IKEA doesnt use Futura anymore? And that theres a difference between a font and a typeface?

We couldnt tell the difference and didnt know those things either! That’s why we made this app so that EVERYONE can learn more about typography.

type-WISE will help you Learn how to tell two similar typefaces apart through our very secret technology. Once youre confident, you can Play games to see how WISE (there it is again) youve become. We believe that games are the best way to drive information deep into your soul. You even get a grade, just like school.. fun!

This isnt an app that will teach you everything about fonts or typefaces. But its a start.
We believe that typography is an important part of communication, and the better people are at communicating, the better this world could be; what part of YOUR life can be improved through better communication?
+Relationships: How come those love letters in ALL-CAPS not getting the right response?
+Business: Why is it that your Comic Sans flyers not bringing in more serious customers?
+Work: Maybe that party invite email couldve used a more readable font size than 72 Pt.?
+Family: ... Sorry. Couldnt think of how typography can help make your family less annoying.

If youve spent the time reading up to this point, you might as well install the app now! (please)
