Rag Time Is Perfect Game for Picky Typographers

CreativePro Staff

Fathom, an information design company, has created a game called Rag Time. With the synthesized music of classic computer games as your soundtrack, you race against time to fix the rags of four sample texts.
You use arrow keys to navigate through the paragraphs to a line-ending you want to change, then either hyphenate a word to move it to the next line, or hit the Delete key to bring a word up to the previous line. If you finish ragging the text to Rag Time’s satisfaction before your allotted 60 seconds are up, you get extra points.

It’s free, so why not try it? If nothing else, you’ll have fun engaging in a true typographer’s favorite pastime: ragging on someone else’s idea of a good rag.
