What it does

On reveal: A random card in your hand costs 2 less.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 4 RAM to play and brings 6 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.

Tech cards bend the rules: more RAM, cheaper cards and patches that weaken the other side.

The site, in 2016

A Polish investigative journalism site, created on 15 June 2016 and paid for by donations and grants, not advertising.

The name puns on 'oko', Polish for eye, and abbreviates 'Ośrodek Kontroli Obywatelskiej', the Centre for Civic Control. It won the Index on Censorship journalism award in 2020.

Modern era, 2009 on. Phones, feeds and cookie banners. The web got fast, flat and very sure about notifications.

The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
