Solitaire game with Dance of Death wood engraving cards.

Overview

Killing Time is a uniquely thought-provoking solitaire card game. Its cards are based on the Dance of Death wood engravings of the great Renaissance artist, Hans Holbein the Younger. When this masterpiece of Holbein's was first published in 1538 each illustration was accompanied by a rhymed moral lesson. Our game is laced with quotations that speak to the modern computer user:

\"Do not fear death so much, but rather the inadequate life.\" - Bertolt Brecht

Killing Time is beautifully illustrated, quick and deep.

Killing Time was first published in the legendary If Monks had Macs monastery library. The new version is a remake of the original classic. The entire If Monks had Macs is also a now available as a free download at rivertext.com.

Josh, I'm very sorry, but the game requires a monitor or LCD that is 1280 x 800 or larger. I tried to enter this info in the requirements field. The impetus for this remake was to make the cards big enough so that you could appreciate their beauty and power while you played the game -- and not just when you reviewed the larger display only versions of the cards as in the CD-ROM version of the game. In any case, you can download for FREE the entire If Monks had Macs CD-ROM from my website. It includes the previous version of Killing Time and much more. Visit rivertext.com for more information.
