    This is one of the most unique and interesting games I have ever played. Everything about it is relaxing and you never feel rushed. The game is beautiful and so is the music that accompanies it. This is the type of game that everyone should buy because I believe almost everyone can find something to like about it.

    Type: Rider provides a very well presented history of typography. The atmosphere and level design wonderfully compliment the information provided. However, at times imprecise platforming only serves to frustrate and lessen the experience. The occasional imprecision does not make the game unplayable, it only made me wish the controls matched the polish of the audio and visual design.

    For about 5 minutes I actually thought comic sans was kinda fun... and then I went right back to hating it. This was a nice casual game that reminded me a bit of Limbo. The levels, graphics, and music were all well done and I even learned a little history along the way. Education + video games for the win!

    "Type:Rider" is a one of a kind game that blends the world of typography and plat-former, you play as a colon symbol witch seems odd but you work your way through levels designed with different types of Font/Type. From older Gothic and Serif fonts to newer San-Serif and Script, It's extremely interesting looking at all these forms of type in a whole knew light, They are no longer just"Type:Rider" is a one of a kind game that blends the world of typography and plat-former, you play as a colon symbol witch seems odd but you work your way through levels designed with different types of Font/Type. From older Gothic and Serif fonts to newer San-Serif and Script, It's extremely interesting looking at all these forms of type in a whole knew light, They are no longer just Letters but pathways you must follow to progress and I feel this lets you see the art and precision behind Typography design. Type:Rider really gives you a idea of how much fonts have changed in the past few years.Controls work great and the sound keeps you immersed in the game. Anyone that is a fan of design or slightly interested in the progression of type on the past few 100 years should really give this game a try, You'll most likely love it.… Expand

    Type:Rider in really an unique game. Is a game that manages to mix wisely entertainment and culture, reinventing at the same time a formula like platform with few but valid variants.
