Design

1. Overview

Contents consist of 4 types of pages: index, contribution titles, contents, and QR code. Typeface selections are Special Issue 17 Regular for titles and Arial Regular for body text, to suggest the juxtaposition of work and play throughout the publication.

Page	Description	Reference
Index	Contributions are separated by the use of the Special Issue 17 font for the first letter for each contribution.	Contributions index
Contribution title	Outlined Special Issue 17 font with hand drawn contribution title	Sample title
Contents	Content pages follow the same format, with the exception of card games or image-based contents. All pages have a progress bar footer as page numbers to indicate the player's progression.
QR code	QR code pages follow a similar format but are adapted for each contribution.	Sample QR
