What it does

On reveal: If an enemy card was revealed here earlier this round, +2 Power to this card.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 3 RAM to play and brings 6 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.

Search cards grow with the friends in their lane, and some draw you cards.

The site, in 1997

The web portal of AOL, once America's biggest online service and the dial-up internet provider for millions.

In 1998 it bought Netscape for $4.2 billion, and in 2001 it merged with Time Warner in the largest merger in US history. Bending Spoons bought it from Apollo in January 2026 for $1.5 billion.

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.
