Tom, is there a "climb mode" in the future for PGS? |

Yes, it will be in PGS eventually, when the complete rewrite is done. This is going to take awhile, we are currently only at 200 games with the rewrite (which is the Mac Edition). Currently 200 games are available for climb mode on the Mac and 101 in Windows (with Goodsol Solitaire 101). We are working on the 300 game version, which will be released for Mac when it is ready. We'll probably be putting out something for a limited number of people to test on for Windows to use Climb Mode for these 200 or 300 games at some point.

I count 135 games in Goodsol Solitaire 101 (Version 1.02) Thomas. Is there a newer version still to be released? |

When you need someone for testing a new Mac-Version, then remember me, Thomas. |

There will be new versions of Goodsol Solitaire 101, of course (in fact, we just released a Mac version today). However, Goodsol Solitaire 101 will always have only 101 games, no new games will be added to it. We will be adding more games to climb mode in Windows, eventually it will be a part of PGS.

Perhaps I'm missing something here Thomas. When you refer to "climb mode in Windows", what precisely do you mean? How do we access it? |

At some point we will probably make available a special build for testers that will have the 200 (or 300) games from the Mac Edition available on Windows with climb mode. We don't plan to put out an actual product with climb mode for Windows for awhile, we need to build up the number games and features in our new system.

Thanks Thomas, that explains it. This is what caused the confusion, "Currently 200 games are available for climb mode on the Mac and 101 in Windows (with Goodsol Solitaire 101)". |
