Looking for a few fonts
« on: March 28, 2005, 11:07:26 pm »
There's this game me and a few friends and family members play called Munchkin.  It's a card game and we've come up with a few good ideas for cards for the game and we are currently in the process of making a couple but we don't know what fonts are used on the originals.

I emailed Steave Jackson and got a response by someone I'm assuming works for him saying the only font they could remember was Quasimoto.

So anyways, can any of you guys who are more familiar with fonts and such tell me what all these fonts are?

First regular Munchkin!
If there's bees in the trap I'm catching em
By the thorax and abdomen
And sanding the stingers down to a rough quill
Then I dip em in ink, and I scribble a bit
But if it they wriggle then I tickle em until they hold still
Lemme say it again
In my land of pretend
I use bees as a mf'n pen

And StarMunchkin...  I guess you'll have to download it or open it in another window so the boards don't shrink it.  :-\

And, Munchkin Fu.  The most important one to me currently as the card I am making up myself belongs on one of those cards!  ;D

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help, you rule!

The font on the first card... duck of doom... is Quasimodo. You want it emailed?

I can't remember the one on the 3 cards (Bobby Feet, etc) when I do I can emai that as well.

OMFG, I can't believe that people actually PAY for fonts!?!

I found out that the smaller text on the FU cards (not the titles) is a font called "Garamond Light Condensed" and also on Munchkin Bites (I didn't mention it before because I don't own it)  the title's font is "Gehenna" and that the both of them are like $12-$20 a piece!

I'm amazed that you can make money on fonts.

I guess the search is on for "free" versions of these fonts...  :P ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)

P.S.  I'm still looking for the names of original Munchkin's smaller text, Munchkin Fu's Title text and both for Star Munchkin.  Bites, I'm not too concerned about as, like I said, I don't have it yet.
