Perplex City: The Cube's been won

And so this first tale ends: the Receda Cube has been found, 2 years and $200,000 in prize pot later.

From the press release:

Today, in an epic showing of his deductive prowess, Andy Darley, an amateur archaeologist, rocketed to the head of the pack as he succeeded in unearthing the Cube which was buried in Wakerley Great Wood, England (approximately 110 miles north of London) to claim the $200,000 reward.

“It’s been a long time coming,” said Michael Smith, CEO of Mind Candy. “We’ve been fascinated watching so many players get involved and really immerse themselves in the community as well as the game. Alternate Reality Games are a brand new kind of entertainment, so I think the incredible response is very encouraging for the future of the genre.”

And some good news for ARG fans: plans for Season Two (it's like telly, innit?) are underway.
