What it does
On reveal: +4 Power to a random card in your hand.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
It costs 2 RAM to play and brings 2 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 1990
A medieval fantasy MUD, a text-based multiplayer world, run from Finland since 1990 by the Helsinki association Balanced Alternative Techniques.
By 2006 more than 100,000 players had passed through. In early 2008 it had over 30,000 subscriptions, which made it one of the largest text-based multiplayer games on the internet.
Pioneer era, up to 1994. Grey pages, blue links and a browser called Mosaic. Images were optional. So was colour.
The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
Pixel tribute by dub3, after the 1990 page.
In the game, this pixel page loads the way it did in 1990, then plays a short scene. Want BatMUD in your deck? Make a free account and open some packs, or try a match first. No sign-up needed for that.
