Unused Categories#

There are twelve puzzle categories that go unused. They can be accessed by editing DATA/PUZZLES.BIN and changing the byte corresponding to the category of a puzzle to the given value, then playing that puzzle.

Notably, the first eight categories are identical to unused categories in the PS1 Wheel games, complete with having the same byte value.
