What it does
On reveal: +4 Power to a random card in your hand.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
It costs 5 RAM to play and brings 8 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 1995
An archive of games and other material for the ZX Spectrum, the Sinclair home computer.
Martijn van der Heide began it in 1995 as a place for Spectrum games, and it grew into an archive of nearly everything about the machine. A controversial 2020 redesign led fans to start a separate copy, World of Spectrum Classic.
Boom era, 1995 to 1998. Netscape, frames, hit counters and animated envelopes. Everyone had a homepage, and every homepage was under construction.
The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
