What it does

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

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 3 RAM to play and brings 4 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 2015

A New York publishing platform that offered authors free book publishing, marketing and analytics.

It began as Vook in 2009, bought the analytics firm Booklr and the ebook publisher Byliner in 2014, and became Pronoun in 2015. Macmillan bought it in 2016 and wound it down by January 2018.

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.
