Contest Brief

I want an icon for iPhone/iPad app. Which is Arabic Word Search app. Have a look on some good competitor icons below

Competitor icons
i) https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/word-search-puzzles/id609067187?mt=8
ii) https://itunes.apple.com/sa/app/alklmat-alday-t/id879918785?mt=8
iii) https://itunes.apple.com/sa/app/id698143087?mt=8

Requirements
i) First of all icon will be only in Arabic alphabets. As this game will be only Arabic word search app.
ii) Icon size will be 1024 X 1024 and it should be in illustrator format. I can increase the size later on.
iii) Use maximum 3 colors. I don't want to limit your creativity. You can use more colors but it's upto you as I am not a designer. It's just my personal understanding that a standard icon has 2-3 colors. Based on your design I will do the theme of my full app by myself. So use good colors.
iv) All the fonts and AI file should be handover.
v) Icon will be flat design with round corners and without round corners as per the iTunes store guideline. You should hand over both type of icon.
v) Be creative and stand out from the crowd in the appstore. As there is already lot's of similar app. I want it to be standout but anyone will get it's feature in first glance by looking at to the icon.

      Your design is good enough no doubt. Just wait for the votes of my friends. As in this stage I have to choose one and most voted one will get selected. But don't get upset if your one didn't got selected. Sure I will keep you in my list for future projects.

      Sorry it was too basic design. I am not saying you are not good designer. Sure you are good designer and you know better then me. Just try to put your icon with thousand icons and then think do you will press on this icon? By this you can judge and make better icon. I am not a designer. That's your part. I am thinking as a user here.

    Please consider good flat design color and good Arabic font. Don't shrink the alphabets @hbdesigner, @punkdsoul it's very basic and same goes with color and font.

    Inshallah can do it... but before starting few inquiries...
    like the icon of your competitors you if you want a marker (a shape marking a word ) i have to know your color and type. or you design it (the marker) later after my design? i am not native arabic so while using arabic alphabet if there is mistake in design you need to assist me... thanks.

      No worries. For this you don't have to be Arab. Just use good font in the design. Regarding color use any flat color you like but don't exceed more than 3 colors in the app. (My thought). If you think more than three colors will look better then you are most welcome, as there is no bindings in creativity. As long as icon looks outstanding and it tells the story of the app then it's fine.

      Don't add the app name in the icon. If still you want it then it will be "البحث عن كلمة - Arabic Word Search"
