It's pretty much all just Times New Roman

EDIT: The comic book styled instruction manual font is different at least:
- Komika Text: https://www.dafont.com/komika-text.font ... h+Keystone

I found the card font!! :D
- Raphael Std: https://www.whatfontis.com/NMY_Raphael- ... rntobackof

EDIT: Here's the font I found being used on the Spanish version of the Atmosfear board (with a very appropriate name, too):
- Nightmare-5: https://www.whatfontis.com/FF_Nightmare ... mosfear#ct

I used a font identier to determine it, and you mentioning TNR being used for it, this other one is identical to it:

Okay, so I looked at the font you suggested with TNR and they both looked practically identical...AT FIRST.

That is, until I compared both fonts to an online box art picture of a Spanish copy for Atmosfear "Los Emisarios", where there exists a special lower-case "i" with an acute mark instead of a dot at the top (as seen in the text that reads "El juego con video interactivo").

Turns out you were absolutely right after all! :shock:

Honestly, the day we all end up collabing on something will be a good day indeed- passion projects make the world go round 8-)

I hope so; I've been working real hard on my Gatekeeper impression! (I got purple towels, now all I need is the lighting and make-up lol)

Added everything so far (along with credits and a few new discoveries) into a big post on the r/welloffears subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/WellOfFears/co ... s_archive/

That's perfect! Though the Reddit page is a small start, surely we can get more of the others on there.
