Karuta is a traditional Japanese card game in which players listen to short descriptions written on a reader’s card. Each turn, the players compete with one another at being the first to pick up the player’s card with the corresponding picture or writing, and whoever wins the most cards wins the game. Font Karuta is a version of this traditional card game for people who are obsessed with recognizing the differences between typefaces. The reader reads the font name and description written on the reader’s card, and then the players pick up the player’s card bearing that font. The player who picks up the most cards is the winner.
