What it does
No ability.
No ability, just Power. Sometimes that's all a homepage needs.
It costs 3 RAM to play and brings 6 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 2007
An online adventure game for children aged 6 to 15 in which players travel between themed islands, each a quest of puzzles to solve.
Created mainly by Jeff Kinney, later the author of Diary of a Wimpy Kid, for Pearson's Family Education Network in 2007. It had more than 75 million registered users by 2012.
In 2007: Launched with a single island to explore.
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.
