Minerva (MS-DOS)



Minerva (1993) is a game about sweeping mines and stuff. It has several options. I know most of you reading this are too young to remember Windows 95, but it existed, and so did Minesweeper.

Mine Quiz:
1) How come it's called "Minesweeper"? Who the hell sweeps mines?
2) Shouldn't it just be called "Mine-blower-upper"?
3) There's no way to win this game. Change My Mind.
4) Download this game and you win a free trophy. 🏆
5) Spell "ICUP" out loud.
6) OMG LMFAO YOU DID IT.

Thanks for watching VGA Chronicles.

Pokemon Trading Card Game (GBC)



Pokemon Trading Card Game (2000) is a card battle game for Game Boy Color. This is the first GB game I ever owned on cartridge. It's pretty fun, and mostly easy if you are good at the card game in real life. The cards featured are from several of the first ever WOTC sets. Some cards are exclusive to this game, and others can only be obtained via infrared Card Popping with friends who have both the game and a compatible Gameboy. If you're interested in the Pokemon TCG, but not so much invested into card collecting, buy/play this game for a satisfactory introduction to the Pokemon collectible card game. Enjoy.

Cringe quiz:
A) On a scale of 1 to cringe, how was the quality of this video?
B) Who's your favorite starter in Pokemon Red/Blue?
O) How many Pokemon Trading Card Game cards are there in the entire universe (taking extraterrestrial life in consideration)? Show your work.
D) How many Pokemon Trading Card Game cartridges exist on the planet right now?
H) How does Geodude's Castle factor into the Ash Ketchum Pokemon Coma Theory?

Sugoro Quest: The Quest of Dice Heroes (NES)



Sugoro Quest (1991) is a game that came out for Famicom only. It's basically an RPG in basically a fantasy world. You - the player - throw dice at monsters in order to fight them as you crawl around on a map screen that resembles a board from a typical board game. It's kind of a weird concept, but it works.

SAT test:
A) Name one song by Eminem. Divide it by 3.7. Show your work.
B) What's the triangular root of a turkey's China-made NES on a Thursday on Mars? Why?
C) If Mario eats 3 mushrooms, does he grow 3 times as large compared to his base form or his Super form? What happened to the Mega stage inbetween? What? Show your work.
D) Mario is autistic. True or False?
E) Why can't Zelda save the princess in MegaMan 13? Type the game genie code to beat Ganon in Mario to find out.

Another Bible (Gameboy)



Another Bible (1995) is a Gameboy game from the Last Bible series. It's not bad, I kinda like it. It's a strategy RPG, and it's turn-based at that. One could say this game is tactical and strategetic. This game was only released in a place known as Japan, but a translation patch can be found for it online. Just ask the Internet! Also, this game is compatible with the Super Gameboy!

Description quiz:
A) You're in a cave. To the west is a SNES, to the north a Famicom, to your right rests a Dreamcast, and to the south is a TurboGrafx-16. You have 2 double A batteries, a sandwich, a deck of cards, and a Yoshi. What do you do?
B) If Mario is pregnant, how many Goombas can the RX-78 take out before Megaman defeats Rockman for defeating Batman? Divide your answer by 3 and show your work.
C) What's your favorite turn-based RPG and why?

Animal Quest (MS-DOS)



Animal Quest (1991) is a turn-based roguelike animal adventure game for MS-DOS. In this game, you parade around as an animal of your choice. The object of the game is to eat food and get back to your primitive lair in the wood. There are 3 difficulty levels and the game can range from easy as pie to impossible. In this video, I believe I am playing an early shareware version of the game (which is the same version I grew up with). It's a nice time waster and can be fun if you choose moderate difficulty. Unfortunately, you cannot purchase this game anymore. You can, however, download an early build or play it online for free. I'll help you out with that by providing links. Enjoy the video and happy hunting!

Longtimenosee Survey:
A) Sup?
B) The environmentalists want to save the animals. Name 3 things animals can do that humans can't.
