The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Riddles are of two types: enigmas, which are problems generally expressed in metaphorical or allegorical language that require ingenuity and careful thinking for their solution, and conundrums, which are questions relying for their effects on punning in either the question or the answer.
- Archer Taylor says that "we can probably say that riddling is a universal art" and cites riddles from hundreds of different cultures including Finnish, Hungarian, American Indian, Chinese, Russian, Dutch, and Filipino sources amongst many others.
- Many riddles and riddle-themes are internationally widespread.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Riddle article was read about 63,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 80 and blocks with 92: each hit it takes is cut by 37 %.
