What it does

On reveal: +4 Power to a random card in your hand.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 5 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 1991

A fan-made multiplayer text role-playing game set in the Discworld of Terry Pratchett's books.

It is a MUD, a game played entirely in text, and one of the more popular fan-made ones. It dates from 1991.

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.
