The game was distributed with a second disk labelled "Competition Disk." When the game was completed, a file was to be saved to this disk and sent to Wizard Development who awarded an undisclosed prize for the first entry received.[2]

The game's author stated in 2014 that the prize was never claimed.[3] No definite solution to the puzzle is known.
