What it does

On reveal: +2 Power to a random card in your hand.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 2 RAM to play and brings 3 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 1995

A scholarly online encyclopedia of philosophy, with about 900 articles in 2025, written mostly by invited specialists.

It publishes only peer-reviewed, blind-refereed original papers, and its contributors come from 35 countries. It was redesigned on WordPress in 2009.

In 1995: Founded by the philosopher James Fieser.

Boom era, 1995 to 1998. Netscape, frames, hit counters and animated envelopes. Everyone had a homepage, and every homepage was under construction.

The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
