What it does
On reveal: Add a copy of this card to your hand.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
The copy is a fresh card, ready to play.
It costs 2 RAM to play and brings 4 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 1999
A volunteer-built database of video games and the people and companies behind them, with screenshots, box art and credits.
Its detailed developer credits led to comparisons with IMDb for games. It lists over 300,000 games on hundreds of platforms, volunteer approvers check each edit, and Atari has owned it since 2022.
In 1999: Founded on 1 March by school friends Jim Leonard and Brian Hirt, starting with PC games from their own collections.
Dot-com era, 1999 to 2002. Glossy buttons, big money and a bug called Y2K. Some of these companies were worth billions for about a fortnight.
Cult Classics: Small, strange and loved to bits by the people who found them.
