What it does
On reveal: The first card you play next round costs 1 less.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
It costs 1 RAM to play and brings 1 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.
Commerce cards grow every round and make your opponent pay more to play.
The site, in 1995
An online bookshop started by Jeff Bezos in Washington state, which sold only books at first and went on to sell almost everything.
It was first called Cadabra, then renamed in 1994 after the world's largest river. It went public in 1997 and began selling music and videos in 1998, which ended its books-only days.
In 1995: The website opened on 16 July, getting its books straight from wholesalers and publishers.
Boom era, 1995 to 1998. Netscape, frames, hit counters and animated envelopes. Everyone had a homepage, and every homepage was under construction.
Megacorps: The giants. You've used most of them today.
