What Is Your Creative Style? Veer Knows.


A fun game offered by Veer will interpret your creative style.

A decade or so ago, Veer began selling digital typography to designers online. It has grown to include sales of other creative assets such as photography and illustration.

Aside from their great selection of typography, one of Veer's value-added features I sometimes enjoy seeing are a variety of smartly designed and illustrated games cleverly produced to provide a learning experience about typography or one of their other products. Naturally, it segues into trying to make a sale, but hey, that's marketing! Nevertheless, the games are actually fun to play.

One game they offered recently along with their promotional email was a game called "The Creative Mystic." By playing it, you would learn what kind of designer you were, based on the categories they had identified. Curious, I decided to give it a try. You can find it here:

The game presents two images for you to choose from. You select one of the two, then it presents another pair. You continue to make your selections until the game concludes by tallying up your responses and reveals your design style. The entire process probably takes all of three minutes.

As you can see from the screenshot below, Veer's "mystic" determined I am an Idealist. Then, as is required, the marketing association kicked in to push sales of their "Cultura Photography" Line. They also gave the opportunity to win a MacBook Air by sharing the results through Facebook and/or Twitter. It was fun to see the result and nice try!...but that was as far as I needed to go. I have been interpreted.

My result.
