What it does
On reveal: Enemy cards cost 2 more to play here.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
It costs 6 RAM to play and brings 11 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.
Commerce cards grow every round and make your opponent pay more to play.
The site, in 2015
A British cashback site run by Rakuten, on an address that replaced Play.com, an entertainment shop founded in Jersey.
Play.com started in 1998 and Rakuten bought it in 2011. Rakuten.co.uk replaced it on 23 March 2015, the UK marketplace closed in August 2016, and the site returned as a cashback portal in April 2024.
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.
