What it does

On reveal: +2 Power to the next card you play.

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.

Media cards broadcast Power to your other lanes.

The site, in 1997

A database of Japanese films, actors and production crew, like IMDb but covering only films first released in Japan.

Its records run back to 1899 and take in the actors and crew behind each film.

In 1997: Y. Nomura started the site this year.

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.
