Hey everybody,
I'm trying to find this damn font for the HeroQuest title.
Besides the obvious logo, I'm seeing the title on The Dark Company is quite the best version of what I presume is a font.
Until now I've found good scans for english and french version of the pack, and a very good scan for the italian one.
Other than those, here's what I've got so far:



What I'm missing is: good scans for the dutch, german and spanish version.

Do you happen to have any of those? And also, high quality scan for the english and french version would be cool.

If I do have those scans, I'll be able to create a font with as many letters I can find.

Thanks!
Cheers

Ok, thanks to fre3men I've got english, german and spanish versions.
Now I'm missing dutch, french and italian scans.
Thanks

Here's what I've got so far:



That's vector we're talking about, then ready to be some font.

I still need french, italian and dutch version scans to catch all the letters.

Cheers

So here's all I've got so far:



The one thing missing is the W from dutch version, and of course the unavailable letters (B, J, K, X, Y, Z); but I'll work on those.

Soon I'll make a beta font; thanks to fre3men and drathe for the help!

They look great Derfel. My only suggestion would be to change the Z. I would make it look more similar to the N only turned 90º clockwise. The diagonal stroke should have more of a curve like the N.

Fantastic job!

I ended up using first Z of these:

Yes, I believe that one looks much better. Thanks for all your hard work and for sharing this new font!

So, I was reading Credits section and read about this Dock who scanned Ducth version of HeroQuest.
drathe, would you mind giving me a way to contact him and see if he's got the Advanced Quest expansion pack?
Thanks!

We converse through PMs on the HeroQuest CoOperation forum.
