Is it just me, or does the maze look like another Escher reference?

Just a little [SPEC] here, but a hunch leads me to believe that "BCAFD" may be a musical reference or clue. Does anyone know of any composers whose signature may be such? I know Bach's was B, A, C, and I think it was B sharp (the German equivalent of an H, though it's been a while since I've heard this and I may be wrong).

Perhaps it fits together with other puzzle answers that have A-G letter answers.

Anyone noticed that the points awarded for this card doesn't seem to fit the normal pattern?

It says, on my card at least, 20 points, with the whole set given 120 points. The card SHOULD be worth 30 points. Has anyone got a card where it IS 30 points?

Bahamoth,

I noticed the point disparity too. I have two copies of this card, and they both say 20 points.

For all the other cards I've seen, you can compute the point value as:

Card# / 4, rounded up to the next whole number

That would give 30 points for card #120.

Could it just be a mistake? I wonder if the online leaderboard system will award 30 points or 20 points for this one.

Now we know: you do indeed get 30 points when you solve this one, in spite of the fact it shows 20. They did the honorable thing.

Mind Candy said that all the promotional cards (the ones they give away) don't have the maps on the back. This was to give the player who hadn't seen anything of Perplex City more info as to what it was, while also not just giving them an entirely blue back!

Hadn't spotted the connection before, but Andrea's brother Brett was responsible for the ambigram that had us all typing "rplexci" for a while lol
