Bob, you are a sad person ;-)

The code is from around 1991/1992, mixture of Turbo Pascal and assembler
(for drawing the cards and zooming in on the BAD looking ladies).

I remember getting the graphics and called back to the company asking
when I would receive the real graphics, quality was SO bad. 256 colors
of course which I had to convert down (own tool) to 220 or so, as I
needed colors for cards and UI.

Chris: Code is not available, I think the company who released the game
(Interactivision) is still around. I'm not even sure if I got the code
any where, on some old backup. If I found it I'm not even sure I would
show it to any ;-)

Cheers,
Sam
