Fair use rationale for A Tale in the Desert

I, Andriyko, feel that this image qualifies for fair use at A Tale in the Desert for the following reasons:

1. It is a screenshot depicting gameplay
2. It is used in an encyclopedic manner in the A Tale in the Desert article
3. It does not limit the abilities of eGenesis to sell their game
4. There is no free alternative
5. The image is being used purely for educational purposes
