What it does
No ability.
No ability, just Power. Sometimes that's all a homepage needs.
It costs 5 RAM to play and brings 10 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.
Tech cards bend the rules: more RAM, cheaper cards and patches that weaken the other side.
The site, in 2012
A book review aggregator that gave each title two percentage scores, modelled on Rotten Tomatoes.
One score came from professional reviews in places such as The New Yorker and The Guardian, the other from reader ratings. Titles from big publishers were included, and it partnered with Sony Reader.
Modern era, 2009 on. Phones, feeds and cookie banners. The web got fast, flat and very sure about notifications.
The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
