The Mystery Cards pose puzzling scenarios that the players have to solve, True-False Cards give information on the workings and dangers of the Internet. Multiple-Choice Cards deal with concepts and important Internet facts, and Opinion Cards are open-ended questions that ask the player how to handle problems and challenges posed by using the Internet.
