Font from Betrayal At Krondor, (C) 1993 Dynamix / Sierra On-Line. Bitmap typeface that starts and ends most chapters in the greatest computer RPG of all time, "Betrayal At Krondor". Now 100% accurate, thanks to Flowswitch at the xBAK forum. Based on "Venice" by Bill Atkinson (one of the the original Macintosh system fonts) and "Naples" from EA's 'Deluxe Paint II Enhanced'.
Another favorite computer RPG: Old English font from Betrayal In Antara, (C) 1997 Sierra On-Line. Sierra Resource File Tags: "8.fon" ; "501.fon" ; "4210.fon". Kerning is from "501.fon", which appears to be only found in Betrayal In Antara. Numerals (except 3 & 8) are from "4210.fon", found in Torin's Passage, (C) 1995 Sierra On-Line. Numerals 3 & 8 are designed by Goatmeal.
Typeface used for the opening credits of Hero's Quest: So You Want To Be A Hero (EGA) & Quest For Glory: So You Want To Be A Hero (EGA), (C) 1989 Sierra On-Line. The words and names were not generated using an in-game font; they were actually pre-rendered static images within the game's art assets. Letters Q & Z created by Goatmeal.
Because the flourishes/sparkles present in the center of several letters could not be recreated effectively in FontStruct, they are NOT included in this font recreation.
Font used in King's Quest V: Absence Makes The Heart Go Yonder!, (C) 1990 Sierra On-Line. Sierra Resource File Tag: "font.008" and is paired with the solid outline version of this font, "font.009".
The font was used for the opening credits and for a single phrase during gameplay:
• Instead of using the solid outline version font.009 for the opening credits, a drop-shadow effect was employed (recreated here in my new sample).
• It was used later in the game WITH the solid outline version font.009 for one single phrase: "A few hours later....." (occurring twice in the floppy disk version, but only once in the CD-ROM version).
Smooth version of the in-game dialogue font from Space Quest 6: Roger Wilco In The Spinal Frontier, (C) 1995 Sierra On-Line.

Clone of Sierra Font 1605 fon. Bold version of the text font from "Space Quest V: Roger Wilco - The Next Mutation", (C) 1993 Dynamix / Sierra. Because (1.) Sierra fonts were aligned along the Cap Height instead of the Baseline, and (2.) this game often used the regular font (1605) and the lowercase bold (5220) within in the same lines of text, this font replicates the same alignment. Modified L S W l and s by Goatmeal; originals located in the More Latin area. Sierra Resource File Tag: "5220.fon"

Initials used with the non-speech text in King's Quest V: Absence Makes The Heart Go Yonder!, (C) 1990 Sierra On-Line. These letters were not generated using an in-game font; they were actually pre-rendered static images within the game's art assets, used in conjunction with the Sierra text font Font.004. While the letters were centered within the 16x15 sprites, the I and J were changed to proportional spacing for use with other fonts.

Solid outline font used in King's Quest V: Absence Makes The Heart Go Yonder!, (C) 1990 Sierra On-Line. Sierra Resource File Tag: "font.009" and is paired with the Sierra font "font.008".
This font was used for onle single phrase in the game: "A few hours later....." (occurring twice in the floppy disk version, but only once in the CD-ROM version). Oddly enough, instead of using the outline font.009, the opening credits used the font.008 twice for a 'drop-shadow' effect...
And while they may have been intentional choices, there are several instances where the outline designs don't follow the patterns found with the majority of other glyphs (missing pixels, perhaps for legibility?). As such, the following characters:
• J O P Q R S X c j m n p q r s u v z ! ;
...have all been 'corrected' within the main set of glyphs; their original designs can be found in the More Latin section.

In the game, the spacing/kerning between various letter and/or punctuation combinations is highly variable, anywhere from 2-6 pixels. To strike a balance, a standard three-pixel width was chosen for letters and most punctuation; the remaing punctuation glyphs have a 6-pixel width, while the numbers retain their 2-pixel width.
