What it does

On reveal: +1 Power to your other cards here.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 3 RAM to play and brings 5 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.

Social cards lift the cards around them, here and in the other lanes.

The site, in 2002

A Chinese online forum founded by Tian Zhe, known as 'mop', first for console games and later for PC games and much else.

Its users coined Chinese internet slang such as '233' for laughing out loud, after the site's 233rd emoticon, and 'orz' for a bow. In April 2007 it was China's second-largest online community, with 28.7 million users.

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.

Meme Machine: Where the jokes everyone repeated got started.
