What it does

On reveal: +1 Power to your other cards 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.

Social cards lift the cards around them, here and in the other lanes.

The site, in 2003

A Dutch instant messaging service that worked in the browser and on phones.

It was founded in Amsterdam in 2003 as e-Messenger and took the name eBuddy in 2006. By 2011 it reported 100 million downloads.

Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.

Dead Links: Gone, but not forgotten. Mostly forgotten.

In the game, this pixel page loads the way it did in 2003, then plays a short scene. Want eBuddy in your deck? Make a free account and open some packs, or try a match first. No sign-up needed for that.
