So i was thinking about my childhood + Show Spoiler +
can't spell reminiscing to save my life
and i remembered this game i used to play maybe around 10 years ago on my dad's computer.

The game played out like a board game. Both you and your opponent (computer) would start off at what i assumed was a castle in the middle of the map. Their might have been a dice or something but you would take turns moving around the map. The objective of the game was to open up chests on the map and collect gold and silver bars. You and the computer would race to collect a certain amount and make your way back home. Now in some of these chests their was a bandit hidden in them and iirc would shoot you and take your half or all of your money.

on the right side of the map/board their was an island and iirc you would have to pay a silver bar to get across. on the island were more chests that were close together.

The game was in color and for some reason i'm pretty sure it was an old elder scrolls board game. Maybe morrowind but i can't find it online. I looked at a map of morrowind and it has the island on the right side and the overall general shape with it being an island.

if i remember anything else will let you guys know!

please help

Yea thats got to be one of the heroes of might and magic games

Although it also kinda sounds like an actual board game I used to play as a kid, called Dark Tower, which is probably the most awesome board game ever made.

10 years ago, that is command and conquer:generals era. Have you checked Heroes of might and magic 1? it is way more ugly than 3 :d. What sort of old computer, Atari, C64, DOS, Windows?

Oh my god, HOMM3. Dat memories...

I used to play this so much with my friends,wwith Hotspot xD Hell was my favourite race, we still didn't know about Necro being OP lol.

HOMM4 was... nice I guss, though we kept playing 3 for MP. Haven't played the new ones to be honest.

@OP: Age of Wonders? Only one I can think of that is similar to what you're saying, with worse graphics than HOMM3. Was addicting in its own way though.

Im pretty sure it was windows. Could have been dos but i doubt it.
The game was completely 2d, and you were a square that moved along the board.

An OLDER might and magick ? Maybe 2 ? never played it. Do you know the kind of computer it was ? 286 ? 386 ? Pentium already ?

EDIT : Damnit someone already ask those questions :p

What kind of controller ? Color like a Windows game or like a C64 color game ? (C64 was in color right ?)

It was basic colors. Like ocean was one shade of blue and i dont really remember what color the board was. I played this game when i was like 5 so maybe go back like 14 years. My friend is coming back from new york next week so i will ask him. Maybe he will know.
