What it does

On reveal: Enemy cards cost 1 more to play here.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 3 RAM to play and brings 5 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 1999

An online travel agency based in Buenos Aires, selling flights, hotels and package tours across Latin America.

Founded in 1999, it listed on the New York Stock Exchange in 2017 and operates in 19 markets. Prosus completed its purchase in 2025.

Dot-com era, 1999 to 2002. Glossy buttons, big money and a bug called Y2K. Some of these companies were worth billions for about a fortnight.

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