Nice one. Far from easy. Took me about 20 minutes (with knowing it is winnable) (without knowing surely more). |

Don't be to frustrated. Knowing a game is hard but winnable changes a lot. For me that means, i play much more carefully what cards i play if i put them up or not or back down again.
Here a short description how to download and open a game.
1. Download Ken's solution down to your desktop.
2. Watch the ending of the downloaded file. If it is .unk then you have to change it to .pgs .
3. When the file-ending is .pgs , then open PGS.
4. Start Thieves of Egypt. Go then to Edit and Open Game and open the file from your desktop.
5. Use the Undo-button to the how Ken solved the problem with the black Tens (they are blocking a lot).
If this didn't work, then i lead you to a description Richard made.
BTW under the Topics is a thread which is meant for Thieves of Egypt games. It mostly isn't necessary to start a new thread for a game. For the most games a thread already exists.
Another btw: when you use this link, then i am the Bib and Ken is 2 places behind me. (Ken, you are still at 95 (or didn't you post your stats and have closed up)?)
