What it does
On reveal: +3 Power to a random card in your hand.
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.
Games cards roll the dice. Sometimes the dice roll you.
The site, in 2004
A British video game news and reviews site, part of Gamer Network.
Its founders included John Bye, Patrick Stokes and Rupert Loman, who had organised the EuroQuake Quake tournament. It dropped its ten-point review scores in 2015, then returned to scoring on a five-point scale in 2023.
Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.
The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
