| Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri | Electronic Arts (Firaxis Games) | 1999 | Going under the banner 'Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri', this game had little or no direct input from Sid. It was instead handled by Brian Reynolds and Firaxis Studios. It is a continuation from Meier's meisterwerk Civilization II, picking up from where that game left off with a colony ship from earth being sent to Alpha Centauri. So it is, ostensibly, 'Civ... but in space!'. This is a sweeping statement, but AC borrows very heavily from Civ II, hardly touching the game mechanics (why mess with perfection? some would say). Little has been added save a custom unit workshop (as seen in many strategy titles) and automated governance for colonies. However the new factions are very well balanced and the future technologies believable and genuinely interesting. This game may not do much new, but it copies an old master with style and panache, while cleaning up a few of it's predecessor's rough edges. | labelimageminimize |

You start as a single seedling that produces a tree on your starting asteroid. Your tree in turn produces new and unique seedlings which can be used to conquer other asteroids. However, the astro belt features up to ten AI opponents that provide fierce resistance and have their own drive for conquest. To defeat them you have to explore the strategic possibilites of the game. Eventually you can build up very large armies of 400 or more seedlings and witness some epic battles. With the exception of the music and sounds, and the font, almost all of the game content is generated procedurally. [Dyson team] | labelimagesubject |

The latter works by player 1 selecting team and configuring its members and hitting ready, but before hitting in the middle for starting the game, second player chooses and configures their team, and repeat until all players have their teams. Only after all players have their team should the begin in the middle be clicked. This is unfortunately a bit vague as there are no clear prompts for it.***2010-06-30 original release 2010-09-24 Steam release with Steamworks integration.***Take command of five Dwarf adventurers as they dive into long-abandoned mines to search for incredible wealth, lost treasures, dangerous monsters and bragging rights at the drinking hall.
