About the Game

An LPS bonus mini-game, When the West Came East is a solitaire wargame about the First Crusade.

The player takes the role of the Crusader armies and his objective is to get control of as many areas of the map as possible and eventually to conquer Jerusalem. At the end of the game you get VP for areas controlled and substract VP for casualties.

While the game originally came out as a bonus, you can buy it, plus another Zimmerer design, in a low price “DoublePack.”
