Wow! Is that one of the old iMagic GBoH series games?

I don't believe I've seen a screencap from one of those in almost 20 years now. I remember playing the GMT boardgame series and being pleasantly surprised the iMagic versions were such faithful ports they let you play most scenarios solitaire on the computer. Fun times!

You can buy it on GOG, and play it right now.

Yeah I remember the old Imagic games. Another good one with cards is HOPLITE. If you can get a copy of it and figure out how to play (I did) it's quite fun. You as a commander of many different ancient army's like Alexander, Spartacus (my favorite), Caesar and a lot more. Even the Persian king I believe.

Never heard of this series, but it looks pretty interesting for one that is so old. Might give it a try.
