Board Game Arena

Since it is already at a turn based site, one would think
approval could be obtained for here. Is it a matter of finding
someone to program it? I wonder if the other site would let their
code be used or they just want to protect their operation.

Is that a game?
There is a thread for suggested games stickied right at the top of this very forum, and this thread https://www.boardgamegeek.com/geeklist/ ... acom-games over on BGA where you can make/thumb suggestions.
