Playful Swollen

Playful Swollen font by Origin Type is a free bold cartoon display font. Its letters look buoyant and air-filled, with puffy outlines that wobble ever so slightly, like bubble gum mid-inflate. The rhythm is chunky yet open, so words feel friendly and exuberant without turning messy—a rare balance that reads fast while still feeling hand-drawn and squishy.

Using Playful Swollen, headlines bounce off the page for kids’ branding, candy or snack packaging, toy logos, party invitations, game splash screens, and YouTube thumbnails. The roomy counters keep color and gradients looking crisp, and the soft edges tame harsh palettes. For an easy combo, pair this free font with a simple sans-serif for body copy and set Playful Swollen large with tight tracking to lock in that bubbly punch.
