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 2003

A video game news website with a particular focus on games made in Japan.

It covers Japanese games, anime and, by its own account, terrible puns, and says it has done so since 2003. Enthusiast Gaming sold it to GAMURS Group in 2022.

Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.

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