What it does
On reveal: -1 to +3 Power to this card.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
It costs 1 RAM to play and brings 1 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 2005
A review blog for casual, indie and Flash games, with daily posts, ratings and comment threads full of hints and walkthroughs.
Jay Bibby began it as a personal blog on 19 April 2003, turned to Flash games in 2004 and added other writers from 2006. It ran game design competitions, and Slate called it the internet's leading source on casual games.
Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.
Cult Classics: Small, strange and loved to bits by the people who found them.
