What it does
On reveal: +4 Power to a random card in your hand.
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.
Games cards roll the dice. Sometimes the dice roll you.
The site, in 2005
The Independent Games Source: a news blog and forum about making independent video games, run by Spelunky's creator, Derek Yu.
Minecraft's first public alpha was posted on its forums on 17 May 2009, and Papers, Please, QWOP, Fez and Spelunky also started there. The Guardian picked it as one of its 100 top sites for 2008.
In 2005: Founded this year by Jordan Magnuson, and soon taken over by Derek Yu.
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 2005 page.
In the game, this pixel page loads the way it did in 2005, then plays a short scene. Want TIGSource in your deck? Make a free account and open some packs, or try a match first. No sign-up needed for that.
