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.

Creators cards are strongest on their own, and some only get going late.

The site, in 2013

A podcast presented as community radio from Night Vale, a desert town where the strange and supernatural are reported as everyday news.

Joseph Fink and Jeffrey Cranor began it in 2012, with Cecil Baldwin as the host, Cecil. Fans on Tumblr sent it to the top of iTunes in July 2013; novels, live tours and a podcast network, Night Vale Presents, followed.

In 2013: In July it passed This American Life to top the iTunes podcast chart, with 150,000 downloads in a week; live shows began in October.

Modern era, 2009 on. Phones, feeds and cookie banners. The web got fast, flat and very sure about notifications.

Cult Classics: Small, strange and loved to bits by the people who found them.
