What it does

On reveal: If an enemy card was revealed here earlier this round, +2 Power to this card.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 5 RAM to play and brings 10 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 2001

A British free browser-game site best known for sports games, football above all, alongside topical joke games.

Richard Pendry and Alick Stott founded it in 2001, having made a penalty shoot-out game as a hobby. IPC Media bought it in 2008; with over 4.5 million unique users a month it was among the biggest UK Flash game sites.

In 2001: Founded this year, though it only became the pair's full-time job in 2003.

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.
