Perplex City News
Saturday 30th June
Well, all I have to say really is SILVER LEITMARKS. Mine arrived in the post this morning. You can see pictures and a write up here. Congratulations to all those lucky enough to be awarded them, take good care of them!
Wednesday 13th June
As many of you are aware, Perplex City the Season 2 ARG has been indefinitely postponed. I did write a rather lengthy write up on the day it was announced, which you can find here, however I have been waiting for more news before making an official announcement to all of you via here. It has now calmed down a lot more, and we are patiently waiting for answers. Many of the players' burning questions will be answered in the forthcoming Cubecast, watch this space.
I can pretty much definitely confirm that the Season 2 cards will be continuing, although we do not have a date on when Wave 2 will be produced, so again, you'll have to be patient and watch this space!
All of the communities are still going strong, and I know they continue to welcome any new members. Here's to hoping that Perplex City will make a come back in a while!
Thursday 17th May
Firstly, I'd like to apologise for the lack of updates. I have been excruciatingly busy finalising the necessary stuff for my degree, which is now over (and yay, I passed). So far there has been a great deal of action in Perplex City, and it looks like Season 2 is all set to start with a bang (hopefully not literally!). The latest news being a whole bunch of new sites have gone live. I shall be updating the Season 2 links to include the latest sites! Those that have been able to keep up (of which I am not one of these), will know that it looks like Perplex City has joined forces with the BBC for the next installment, which coincides with the Big Weekend this coming weekend (19th/20th May). There have been puzzles going up to win tickets to the Big Weekend via the 3P Frozen Indigo Angel site, of which many people have won tickets that they then have to go to the meeting point and pick up. I was lucky enough to be one of those asked to go to the meeting point and pick up tickets, and I shall update my write ups to document this. This weekend will be hectic, but fun! Violet has also set us various challenges, and has been keeping us updated on the Paul Denchfield stuff, so there is a lot to read!
Perplex City Stories has also had a shiny new makeover, and it looks absolutely beautiful. Perplex City.com has also had the same makeover! We have also been introduced to Wayback, which allows us to browse all the Season 1 websites at our ease. I thought this was a brilliant feature. I shall be updating all the necessary Season 1 websites to include this URL at the start, so users can still follow the links!
For those lucky enough to be going to the Big Weekend, I'll see you Saturday! For those that are unable to attend, I shall be writing up, and hopefully taking as many pictures as I can!
Friday 4th May
As expected, the taster for Season 2 ARG went live today, and it is pretty darn shiny, if I say so myself! The Perplex City Sentinel had a lovely makeover and looks extremely pretty, as well as Violet Underground being made live, and having a puzzle for us to try and solve as a little taster!
You can find more information about the updates on the write up section of the site, or by clicking here.
Enjoy!
Thursday 3rd May
From the looks of the posts from Adrian Hon on the Mind Candy Blog and The Perplexorum, as well as the brief article on ARGN, we could be seeing a preview of Season 2 in the near future. It looks like this could be on Friday 4th May, so keep your eyes peeled!
I look forward to the preview going live!

Perplex City Side is fully functional and helped me to pass my degree! Hopefully over the summer you will see some new features and better security added, time permitting!
