Video games don’t have a great track record when it comes to Arabic, but those are Western games where people have done a shitty job depicting the language. Things look much better when we let a natural handle things.
Egyptian graphic designer Ibrahim Hamdi has taken a bunch of famous and iconic gaming logos and translated them, keeping their overall design but switching out English (or… whatever is left of the language after everything’s been miscapitalised and underscored) with Arabic.
The results are very, very cool. I’ve posted some below, but you can check out the whole series here.
