What it does

On reveal: -1 to +3 Power to this card.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 4 RAM to play and brings 8 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.

Games cards roll the dice. Sometimes the dice roll you.

The site, in 1998

A website about adventure games, with reviews, previews, opinion pieces and interviews with game designers.

It began in August 1998 as a fan site called Adventure Fan, made by Marek Bronstring, who owned it until 2016. The Aggie Awards started in 2008. After a change of owners in 2025 it also covers online gambling.

Boom era, 1995 to 1998. Netscape, frames, hit counters and animated envelopes. Everyone had a homepage, and every homepage was under construction.

The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
