What it does
On reveal: +4 Power to a random card in your hand.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
It costs 5 RAM to play and brings 8 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 2006
A game portal started by Macromedia to show off its Shockwave and Flash plugins, with games you play right in the browser.
It grew out of ShockRave, a 1998 showcase of Macromedia projects, and had 22 million users by 2005. By 2010 it hosted more than 400 games.
In 2006: The company was renamed Atom Entertainment and bought by MTV Networks for $200 million.
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.
Pixel tribute by dub3, after the 2006 page.
In the game, this pixel page loads the way it did in 2006, then plays a short scene. Want Shockwave.com in your deck? Make a free account and open some packs, or try a match first. No sign-up needed for that.
