On June 1, 2007, it was announced via the main Perplex City Stories homepage that the game was being delayed for an indefinite amount of time, but would certainly be making a return in the future. The following is taken from the announcement:
At Mind Candy we've always believed that a less than perfect game is worse than no game at all. For this reason, we're holding off from launching Season Two for now.
We want to reassure you that this is not the end for Perplex City; we've invested far too much love, time, and energy in this to stop now.[1]
The Perplex City Stories site is also being complemented by the new "Perplex City—We Love Puzzles" site, which features new user-submitted puzzles and flash games. The site also allows users to enter the solutions for both Season 1 and Season 2 puzzle cards, as well as keeps a total of the number of puzzles solved, including site puzzles and puzzle cards.
At the after-party of the first season, players were given "keys", fictional high-tech devices from the game, with codes allowing them to register for the new game. Players who ordered Season 2 cards from Firebox.com also received these keys. Those who attended the party were also give business cards sending them to VioletUnderground.com.[2]
