You all know Tate -- he's the one responsible for our Chex Quest content. (I'm still not sure whether I should thank him or curse his name unto the fifth generation.) Well, today's his birthday, and so I'm doing something I should have done an exceedingly long time ago: publish his latest fiver. Remember his parody of Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri? Well, he went on to hit another of Sid's games. In the finest tradition of off-the-wall VG fivers, here's Five-Minute Sid Meier's Civilization III by Tate.

Actually, real Civ players don't change lightbulbs, they accumulate them, and when they have enough, they get more technology. Nice job, Tate, and happy birthday.

And I never played this expansion, but I did play Sid Meier's Colonization, which was a lot of fun and informational for US History class. Excellent fiver, Tate. And Happy Birthday.

I never really liked this game. I mean, they kept trying to name Egyptian cities by their Greek names! :roll:
Nice fiver, though

You know what I like best about Civ III? How easy it is to create your own absurdly cheaty scenarios. Definitely a great fiver.
Happy Birthday, Tate! (Speaking of Chex Quest, look what I found...)

Thanks for the birthday present, Zeke. I especially liked the blurb:

And thanks for the comments and birthday wishes, everyone.

I love seeing people make fivers out of games with no actual plot.

D'oh! I completely missed that "risky" thing...
The jokes are getting worse, Z
