The correct name is "The Quick Brown Fox Jumps Over The Lazy Dog, a Typeface Memory Game" and a few words in a typical memory game where you have to find two cards that will bring the same design. In this case, however, the game, designed by brasilianops.2 arquitetura + design, is complicated because some of the cards are almost indistinguishable at first glance, except to a trained eye.
The 25 pairs of cards in fact show the letter A (upper and lower case) declined in 25 different typefaces, chosen among the most famous, from the Centaur Baskerville, Garamond, Helvetica, Rockwell, Univers, Times New Roman up to and beyond . The deck is attached to a booklet that tells the history of typography, and on each card are hints about the birth of the specific font.
An educational game for budding graphic designers, but also for those who simply want to test their ability to capture visual details. You can buy on the publisher's site or at the Dutch BIS Publishers Amazon .
Definitely a game to add to my MUST HAVE! and what do you think?
