Thread: Wondrous Creatures:: General:: Are active abilities rare in this game?

30 May 2026 @ 7:03 pm

by Anarchosyn Pre purchase inquiry:Wondrous Creatures was almost an impulse purchase yesterday based almost entirely on the big picture appeal—my partner would love the theme, the animal depictions, and we’re both big into tableau builders like Everdell, Earth (ish), Terraforming Mars, even Race (or Roll) for the galaxy. What gave me pause were the cards — upon poking things a bit closer, most example I could find weren’t active use abilities, the kind I enjoy the most, but scoring modifiers, scoring goals or single use instant effects. To frame this better, Terraforming Mars has a decent ratio of active (i.e. player activatable) to non-active cards acquirable in a two player session for my tastes. I like building into variable player powers on a per game basis, essentially. How does this compare?For what it’s worth we’ve never tried Ark Nova.

Intel CPU Shortage to Worsen in 2H2019

13 March 2019 @ 12:30 am

According to a recent report by Digitimes, Intel’s CPU supply shortage will continue to worsen through the 2H2019 as demand for entry level and mainstream notebooks such as Chromebooks and Core i3-based notebooks continue to increase without the proper increase in supply to sustain the growth.

In a stunning move from Nvidia earlier this week, the GPU company announced that they would finally begin supporting adaptive sync functionality on AMD FreeSync monitors.

Weekly poll: will you buy the Xiaomi 17T or the Xiaomi 17T Pro?

31 May 2026 @ 3:04 am

Last year, the Xiaomi 15T Pro easily won over the vanilla 15T in our poll. Now that the 17T generation has arrived, will history repeat itself? There is a good chance that it might not – the new vanilla model brings some key improvements that could improve its fortunes, but there are some issues too. The biggest issue may be the price – the Xiaomi 17T starts at €750, while the 17T Pro starts at €900 (for a 12/256GB phone in both cases). This is a €100 price hike compared to the 15T pair. We get it, everything has gotten more expensive, especially devices that need fast RAM and storage....

Weekly poll results: Android 17 with better security and AirDrop support has people excited

31 May 2026 @ 12:02 am

Last week, we asked you about which announcements coming out of Google I/O had you buzzing with excitement – in general, but also specifically for the upcoming Android 17 update. Starting with the top-level question, Android 17 was by far the best thing demoed at I/O 2026. Not surprising, given our audience. But the ranking of the other options did surprise us – barely anyone cared about Wear OS 7. The smartwatches lost to Gemini Intelligence and Android Auto (which were essentially tied) and even the new Googlebook design (the Android-powered laptops) sparked more interest. Some...

Weekly deals: the Galaxy A57 gets its first real discount, Galaxy A37 and S25 FE also on sale

30 May 2026 @ 9:14 pm

It took a while, but the Samsung Galaxy A57 is finally up on Amazon – and it kicks things off with a $60 discount. That’s a bit less than the A37 discount, but it’s enough to shift the balance of power between the two. The A37 is the cheaper model and if you can live with 6GB of RAM and 128GB non-expandable storage, then yes, it is meaningfully cheaper. But the 256GB models of the A37 and A57 are currently only $10 apart. Samsung Galaxy A57 $60 off Read our review ...

Samsung Galaxy Watch9's codename surfaces, might launch with a Classic model

30 May 2026 @ 5:09 pm

Samsung launched the first "Classic" smartwatch with the Galaxy Watch4 in 2021, but it wasn't a part of all the Galaxy Watch lineups that arrived later, as Samsung launched the Classic model with alternate generations, meaning the Watch5 and Watch7 didn't have a Classic version, but the Watch6 and Watch8 series did. Considering that pattern, we weren't expecting Samsung to launch a Classic smartwatch this year, but a new development suggests that might not be the case. While looking at the code of a Wear OS update, the folks at Android Authority spotted what could be the codenames for the...

Weekly deals: Xiaomi 17T and 17T Pro launch with optional tablet bundle

30 May 2026 @ 8:09 am

Xiaomi unveiled the 17T series this week – the two phones cost €100 more than their 15T predecessors, but they also bring in some important upgrades. Starting with the Xiaomi 17T, the phone now features a 50MP 5x/115mm periscope camera to match its Pro sibling. The camera is capable of 30cm macro shots as well as 10x lossless zoom. That’s quite an upgrade from the old 2x/46mm lens. Anyway, the tele camera is joined by a 50MP 1/1.55” main, a 12MP ultra-wide and a 32MP selfie camera. The 17T is smaller than the 15T as the new model has a 6.59” display, a 12-bit 120Hz OLED panel. However,...

Xiaomi Watch S5 in for review

30 May 2026 @ 5:31 am

This is the brand-new Xiaomi Watch S5 and at €179, it’s Xiaomi’s middle option between the Smart Band 10 Pro and the full-fledged WearOS-equipped Xiaomi Watch 5. It looks and feels premium, and it packs a massive 815 mAh battery, which Xiaomi claims will last up to 21(!) days on a single charge. Now that we've got our hands on a review unit, let’s see what comes in the box. We got the Jungle Green colorway, which features a cool green strap, made of a mix of fluororubber and nylon braided materials. You could easily change it to something more stealthy as it is a standard 22mm strap....

Honor Win Turbo unveiled with 10,000 mAh battery and durable chassis

30 May 2026 @ 3:05 am

Honor already released the first two phones of its Win series - the regular Win and the Win RT, both with active cooling fans and 10,000 mAh batteries. However, the Win Turbo that just launched today in China focuses more on utilizing that huge battery to the fullest. There's no cooling fan, and the chipset is less power-hungry. The Honor Win Turbo runs on the Dimensity 8500 chipset, which draws less power compared to the Snapdragon 8 Elite and 8 Elite Gen 5 inside the Win RT and the regular Win. So it's not a performance-focused device, but an endurance-focused one. The display is...

Oppo Find X10, Honor Magic9 series said to be testing a 100MP square selfie sensor

Earlier this year, a rumor revealed that Oppo and Huawei may offer a square selfie sensor on their upcoming flagships. Meanwhile, another recent leak claimed that Oppo will use a 100MP sensor. Now, fresh leaks suggest that the Honor Magic9 could also get a square selfie camera. According to tipster Digital Chat Station, the upcoming Oppo Find X10 series will feature a Samsung-developed 100MP selfie camera sensor with a 1:1 square format. The sensor is said to measure 1/2.5 inches in size. Oppo Find X9 Pro's selfie camera In a separate Weibo post, the tipster also claimed that Honor...
