The Season 2 Card Backs relate to information printed on the reverse side of puzzle cards in Season 2.

General

In the second season of Puzzle Cards, the reverse side of all Wave 1 cards had a variety of short stories, magazine articles, advertisements, or other information relating to Perplex City. In some cases, such as the "Choose Your Own Misadventure: The Mimasan Maze Mystery", a complete text was separated across multiple cards. Other card backs seem can stand alone. Many of the cards have a strong narrative Point of View and reflect internal thoughts of the characters they are describing. At this time it is unclear if the puzzle scribes, Mind Candy, or others in Perplex City are aware of the information presented on the cards.

Narratives

Many of the cards contain a story spread out across multiple cards. Below is a partial list of the threads identified to date, and the card numbers they appear on:

  • Choose Your Own Misadventure: The Mimasan Mazy Mystery!: A Choose Your Own Adventure styled story set in Perplex City's Mimasan Maze. This text appears on Season 2 puzzle cards 004, 009, 010, 011, 042, 043, and 044.
