What it does
On reveal: Draw 1 card.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
It costs 2 RAM to play and brings 5 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.
Search cards grow with the friends in their lane, and some draw you cards.
The site, in 2008
An ecological search engine from Wittenberg, Germany, that gave away its ad income to protect rainforest.
Christian Kroll created it in 2008 and it closed in 2011. It aimed to cut CO2 emissions too. It was briefly tied to Google, then to Yahoo, and Ecosia later used a similar idea of funding tree planting.
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.
Pixel tribute by dub3, after the 2008 page.
In the game, this pixel page loads the way it did in 2008, then plays a short scene. Want Forestle in your deck? Make a free account and open some packs, or try a match first. No sign-up needed for that.
