About 3 years ago, I wrote a small article about the Cards.dll that I encapsulated even longer ago.
I just did some looking around to see on which versions of Windows Cards.dll was still available, as Card.dll has been there since the Windows 16-bit era.
Conclusion: this C# example shows was available on Windows XP, but it seems not available on Windows Vista and up.
The successor is CardGames.dll, which is far bigger than Cards.dll, only has resources (but way more than Cards.dll), and no code.
I’ll probably use XN Resource Editor 3.1 for some investigation later on to see how to get some demos running on more modern versions of Windows (:
