Perplex City Information Game Overview Season 1: The Receda Cube was stolen from the Academy Museum in a daring heist. Through clever use of Puzzle Cards sent to Earth by Sente Kiteway, as well as deucedly clever gumshoeing by everyone involved, we discovered Violet Kiteway, Sente's daughter, stole the cube to protect it from The Third Power. Season 2: After foiling V at the Radio 1 Big Weekend, Mind Candy announced a premature end to what promised to be a good set of stories. Hot Topics EXTRA! EXTRA! Read all about it!!! The Season 1 card Shuffled (Season 1 Card #243 - Shuffled) has finally been solved! The Djinn virus, which the card is about, infected Keys around the city, causing 750 million Lecks of damage. All this havoc was caused by Redward Price, an aspiring young Academy pupil with something to prove. Information Archive Looking for the French Puzzle Card translation project?
