So he should've had a chamber with suspicious steel floodgates and engravings of congressmen melting, burning, withering away, falling, etc.

In which time several new versions would have been released, rendering our seed values useless.
A more detailed search would be of more use than quick checks: These worlds are BIG. Quite possibly, a preliminary search could be done to grab all the local tiles with certain characteristics: eg. mountain tiles with an embarkable biome, that would therefore be a fortress-ready local area guaranteed to have Hidden Fun Stuff (EGP). Then each region tile could be scanned to see if it has a biome with: iron-bearing rock, flux-bearing rock, sand, etc.

Could have sworn I responded to this... anyway, you're absolutely right. I know it was easy, but I just HAD to resurrect this thread using the awesome game I got this Sunday. I would've had it eleven hours sooner, but stupid Westlake Center doesn't allow the Gamestop there to do midnight releases, for security reasons I guess. Next time I get a game that's going to do a midnight release preordered, I'll do it from the one in Pacific Place two blocks up.

Oh it has to be. :3
This is an engraving of a human and executable files. The executable files are surrounding the human. The human is raising the disc. The human is striking down the executable files.

Yup! I figured if any DF critter could stand in for Kirby, it'd be a fluffy wambler.

Very yes.
On this wall is a masterful engraving of a female human and a cave swallowman. The swallowman is speaking with the human. The human is raising the adamantine plate mail. The human is striking down the brain.

We've already done that one... twice.
On the wall is a masterful engraving of a human and the sky. The human is flying through the sky. The human is striking down the turtle. The plump helmet is making a plaintive gesture. The human is imitating a spirit of fire. The human is imitating a raccoon. The female human is in another fortress.

Actually it's that the sphere is made of ten different materials. But not simultaneously. It's not oldish. It is PC. It is platformer-ish.
