Perplex City Gets Extra $$$ For Confusing Us

tjtj.jpg The newly renamed ARGNet has full details on Perplex City creator Mind Candy's $7 million round of funding for its unique CCG-based alternate reality shenanigans.

Alongside this announcement, it's revealed: "There is more Perplex City on the way! It is official. The second season of the popular game will be driving us mad sometime in early 2007. They also promise that there are loads of new Perplex City products in development including books, video games, and mobile content."

Also: "The UK-based company is also expanding beyond Perplex City and is currently working on a new puzzle brand that will be aimed at a younger demographic." I wonder how mainstream-translatable or even expandable the whole Perplex City thing is, given its elliptic, if fascinating nature, but I guess we'll see!
