Original creator of boardgame.io here. A pleasant surprise to see this here after many years.

More recently, I've been working on https://boardgamelab.app/, which uses a visual programming language to model game rules while also taking care of the UI layer.

There was this iOS game which died which I wanted to recreate:

But I have 0 knowledge of game development. Maybe this could make my job easier? Or maybe somebody else who know how to write game can do it? Please?

So you provided a thoughtful response, to show us how it is done?

The question was basically, can you rewrite that game for me?

Yeah sure, anything else?

Sorry, it was really not adding much to the conversation. The first question on its own would have been a simple yes.
