We've discussed in the past how the video game medium could perhaps be better leveraged for education, and so this upcoming title about, er, typefaces has us intrigued. The bold [Sorry – Ed] experience, launching on the PlayStation 4 and Vita next week, sees you assume the role of two full-stops, who must work their way through different typographic styles and techniques – ranging from cave paintings right the way through to Comic Sans.
The PlayStation edition of Type:Rider will bring with it new speedrun levels as well as unique features for both the PS4 and Vita; you'll be able to use the DualShock 4's motion sensors in the console release, and back touch in the Vita version. It'll also, of course, be cross-buy. Naturally, this kind of thing isn't going to set the world alight, but it's always nice to see something with a bit of character. Fuu—!

Well wing my dings if this doesn't sound delightfully intriguing.
I have this on my phone, it's good and unique game.
There are a lot of good mobile game that I hope will be ported to ps4/vita like lara croft go, steven universe rpg attack light, liberation maiden, deep dungeon of doom, sword and sorcery and nearly all of square enix mobile game (the world end with you, chaos ring, etc).
Cant wait for this to arrive through the "Courier (New)" and ready to play. A sense of "De Ja Vu (sans)" of a game from last "Century" hopefully it will have a similar "Impact" now its on "(Lucinda) Console". Cant wait to play this "Latha".
Oh man this game's great! I played it a couple years back when it released on Steam. A solid platformer, that offers some genuinely educational aspects. It was a cool game! (Sorry no puns)
