After guessing the obvious, and failing LOL, I showed this to my girlfriend and

She seems to think this is a cross-stitch pattern - An awful amount of time to invest solving a card!

thats what I thought, what your girlfriend thought, that is.

those patterns use a series of symbols to distinguish colors and thickness of lines used.

but looking at it closer makes me wonder about the dots in the middle of lines. Those arent found very often

Thats awesome. Do you have a web address for that?

back to the card. The legend in the lower left corner is confusing me. Doesn't seem to give an idea of how to create this, if it is what we think.

I'll have a look again for that link for you, I didn't bookmark it, just sighed heavily and closed it

After looking at that card again, and specifically that key you mentioned, it just occurred to me that the symbols match the 4 buttons on a Playstation controller. I'm SURE that's a coincidence but I thought as it's 1:45am I'd get away with mentioning it

I've found something.

If you hold the card, if the light is hitting it properly, I'm seeing lines through certain symbols. Easiest to point out are the first two rows of circles, specifically the second row in the upper left, and the first row on the upper right. See the unfiction thread for more info.

Look in the fansites section. It's listed there and had a section for each puzzle, grouped under colours. It's very similar to this but has been going for ages and isn't confined to PXC.

You really didn't need to spoiler that, you know. And just so you know, the cross stitch thing?

NOT the right way to go.

In fact, the majority of Perplex City players are, in fact, British
