School Rules Former

School Rules Former font by Élise Benoît of Microtype Fonts is a free retro display typeface with a sharp, slanted swagger that feels pulled from an old-school arcade cabinet or VHS action title. Its chunky, angular strokes and forward-leaning rhythm create a sense of motion even in a single word, while the tight spacing keeps letters snapping together like a bold logo lockup. Heavy black forms give it a punchy, inky presence that holds up at large sizes and on noisy backgrounds.

Using School Rules Former, you can push headlines for posters, gaming graphics, throwback event flyers, sports branding, zines, and YouTube thumbnails into full-on attitude mode. This free font shines when you let it run big and loud, then pair it with a plain, modern sans serif for body copy to keep things readable. Reach for it anytime you want retro energy with a fast, rebellious edge.
