What it does

No ability.

No ability, just Power. Sometimes that's all a homepage needs.

It costs 2 RAM to play and brings 4 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 1999

A Russian-language video game site with news, reviews and video series.

Rinat Ospanov founded it in 1999, when it was mostly cheat codes, wallpapers and mobile games. The first editorial game review ran in 2005, and it was one of the first Russian sites to stream games regularly.

Dot-com era, 1999 to 2002. Glossy buttons, big money and a bug called Y2K. Some of these companies were worth billions for about a fortnight.

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