What it does

No ability.

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

It costs 1 RAM to play and brings 2 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.

Media cards broadcast Power to your other lanes.

The site, in 2000

An English-language newspaper published in Phnom Penh, with a Khmer edition, founded by Michael Hayes and Kathleen O'Keefe.

It began on 10 July 1992 as a fortnightly colour tabloid and went daily on 8 August 2008. Its English and Khmer print editions ended on 29 March 2024, with the paper citing falling advertising revenue.

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.
