The game is an old-style RPG, developed by Basilisk Games. I can reproduce the
problem with the demo version (v1.04) as well as with the full (Steam) version
of the game. The sequel, Eschalon Book 2 is also affected, but only when DX7
renderer is used.

The problem: text appears as coloured blocks in the launcher as well as in mid
game (see attached screenshot).
The game offers DirectX and OpenGL rendering modes: in the main game the
problem occurs only when DirectX is selected (the OpenGL renderer is free from
the problem). However, the launcher always displays corrupted text (probably
because it always uses DirectX).

The problem is due to a recent commit:

    ddraw: Create texture surfaces from device_parent_create_texture_surface().

    Instead of creating them in advance and hoping we can find them back later.

Reverting the patch on wine-1.5.8-160-g8613d5e fixes the problem.
