Black Sonata
If a fog card says to discard the top card of the fog deck and the fog deck is empty, do you lose?
The designer answered this specific case in a reply, and it corrects a community reading that said you lose.

No. If the fog deck is empty when a fog card tells you to discard its top card, the card you are playing is put back into the fog deck and serves as the discarded one, so play continues. Separately, you lose if you cannot slide a fog card in to use a fog card or to search, or if you cannot carry out any other fog card instruction (such as drawing from an empty clue deck).
