Crack the Visual Code with Flow Studioโ€™s Iconic

 

PRAGUE โ€“ Sept. 3, 2014 โ€“ Launching today on iOS and Android, Iconic offers players incredibly witty puzzles created by translating everyday icons into bands, movies, and celebrity names. The game challenges everyoneโ€™s knowledge of pop culture with the same symbols that define life in the 21stย century.

Czech developer Flow Studio takes well-known icons such as Go, Play, Shop, Smile, Like, Share and turns them into beautifully designed puzzles. For example, two icons (one representing an iron followed by another representing a man) would result in Iron Man (the movie):

More than raw memory โ€“ or rote memorization โ€“ Iconic requires visual thinking and knowledge in order to win.

โ€œPeople are now used to visual โ€˜abbreviationsโ€™ of all sorts. We read symbols much faster than text โ€“ faster than ever before,โ€ says Petr Fodor, co-founder of Flow Studio. โ€œWith Iconic, weโ€™ve pushed this โ€˜visual languageโ€™ to the extreme and made it beautiful with minimalistic design cues. Iconic is a completely original, ridiculously fun puzzle game for pop culture fiends ready for their next challenge.โ€

 

Key Features

  • 200 awesome hand-drawn icons
  • Categories include Movies, Music, and People (with more categories to come)
  • Share any quiz on Facebook if you need help from friends
  • Every solved puzzle includes a Wikipedia excerpt
  • ย 

Iconic is available for free on both iOS and Android. Players earn coins (the gameโ€™s currency) simply by playing the game. As coins accumulate, they can be redeemed for three types of hints (exposing a correct letter, removing an incorrect letter, or solving the entire puzzle). If players run out of coins, they can earn more in-game or through in-app purchases.
