It was actually a board first, and there have been a number of electronic versions throughout the years. I had one such adaptation on CD growing up in the late 90s, but I'm not sure it would be the same one you played.
Cool game, though. I sunk lots of hours into it.
There are only two genders: male and political.
Many moons ago I had an old high school classmate add me on Facebook. They listed their religious beliefs as "Too each there own".
I watched Hockey Night in Canada for the first time in almost 12 years a few weeks ago and I was appalled. I counted at least three different betting apps being advertised, and a lot of the analysis was also tied to betting odds. It left a really sour taste in my mouth, completely irrespective of the actual game.
Maybe they'll confirm the rumoured Fire Emblem 4 remake? I think enough time has passed since Engage that it wouldn't be completely overshadowed.
They're actually getting The Binding Blade (the one with Roy as the main character that has never had an official English release) and the Blazing Blade.
Sacred Stones doesn't appear to be available anywhere on the service (yet).
Symphony of War: The Nephilim Saga
I'll say up front that it's a niche game and isn't for everyone. This is especially true because most of its aspects outside of the gameplay are pretty unremarkable. But if this is your thing, it's really your thing.
What makes it so special is that its core gameplay loop is a very satisfying meld of Fire Emblem and Ogre Battle - essentially a turn-based strategy RPG where you control semi-autonomous squads instead of individual characters. And if that description made you perk up just by reading it, you need to go buy this game ASAP.
Now, if that description didn't immediately pique your interest, I'd check out some gameplay videos instead. Because it fills such an obscure niche, it's actually hard to know if you'll like this game just from a brief description. There's a good chance you've never played anything like this, and it will scratch an itch you never knew you had.
I was somewhat inoculated against the pipeline for two reasons:
I was in my 20s when I finally stopped going to church and had enough perspective to be skeptical of the anti-feminism content.
By the time I started watching atheist YouTube videos the split between left and right was well-established, so it was easy to filter out the culture war stuff.
That didn't stop YouTube from recommending Carl of Swindon's channel every chance it got.
