Too late...

This game looks interesting, but am I finding it too late to enjoy it all? It seems pretty in depth, and I would hate to be doing the whole thing feeling like I am 2 miles behind everyone playing catch-up in race thats just 100 yards long Flaming Nutter

You are never too late to join this, if you go to the first podcast that has a story overview up til now, I joined about a year in (just before the main game launched) and I've caught up fine, if any old infromation is used then generally someone will put a link to the section about it, and if not just search for it (and watch out for the dreaded trout Razz).

Sweet, I was thinking this might be something my wife and I could get intersted in. Should be fun giving it a go, but she's a bit smarter than me, so I'll just watch T.V. while she solves the thing Smile hahaha

It is pretty easy to catch up at http://story.perplexcity.com/

Plus, if you don't want to read and just want to listen to a 5-minute recap, then check out the podcast: http://story.perplexcity.com/podcast/

Surfing a few forums, I saw a link to Perplex City in someone's signature. After I looking at the site, I googled a bit and found this forum...seemed like the best place for info, and to get started.

I wish people would stop it with the 'dreaded trout'. The trout is a term of respect, and is generally used in the polite fashion it was intended. See this post for trout details, if you've forgotten.

Hey people. I'm another newbie and just wanted to drop by and say hi.

I heard about perplexcity at Thinkgeek over a month ago, but I couldn't tell if it was UK-centric or not. PC Gamer ran an article this month with the nice info that the game was in fact US friendly, so here I am.

I have 8 packs en route from Thinkgeek right now and can't wait to join in on the fun.
