Squared letters on Flash, Conflict of fonts

Reported by germo.va...@gmail.com, Jul 24 2016 
Chrome Version (from the about:version page): Version 51.0.2704.79 Ubuntu 14.04 (64-bit)
Is this the most recent version: YES
OS + version: Linux Ubuntu 14.04 
CPU architecture (32-bit / 64-bit): 64-bit
Window manager: Unity 
URLs (if relevant): www.warlight.net
Behavior in Linux Firefox: Works perfectly
Behavior in Windows Chrome (if you have access to it):
Fails
What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1)Opening a game (shockwave window) in Chromium, letters are squared, unreadable
(2) does not crash, but is slower than previously
(3) happened just after last update (few days abo)

What is the expected result?
Should be working out of a box as have been past few years. Look pictures to see difference in Chrome and Firefox.

What happens instead?
IS slow, squared writing. 

Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot
and backtrace if possible.

Previously I used for Encoding - Western. Now I was suggested to change it Auto-detect did not help, neither Unicode. As far as I have researched it is a conflict of Fonts. Two screenshots to show it look and should look. This happened with latest Ubuntu update.

Unable to reproduce the issue on Ubuntu 14.04 using chrome latest stable M52-52.0.2743.82. Unable to play this game using multiplayer due to some lack of coins in my account, So tried played using single player and observed no issues as seen in the above screenshot. All the fonts where visible and seen properly with no issues.

Reporter@ - Could you please recheck this issue by upgrading your chrome to latest stable M52-52.0.2743.82 by creating a new profile under chrome://settings with no apps or extensions in your browser.

Thank you for the fast reply. Yes, it seems no issue on latest Chrome as you suggested. What I have used thus far is Chromium, officially supported by Ubuntu (as it is free source) - the version is older but worked till now perfectly. I face same issue with Opera now. It seems it is a problem of my PC and probably a font conflict. I will either move to Chrome version or try to get help from Ubuntu forums. 
Thank for your kind help!
