Hi All--This is going to sound as though I just came back from another galaxy (not true) but exactly WHAT are the new games now? I have a listing in the appropriate category but I don't know which are really new and which have been added in this latest download--

Thank you--I appreciate your patience and help. And no, I have no been hitting the eggnog early---

I'm not sure I understand your question. Do you mean newly created games which have never appeared anywhere else before, as opposed to additions which might just not have been included in PGS previously? Actually, each time around the majority of additions are in fact supposedly new games created by Thomas or others.

As far as as I can tell, the New Games category shows all new additions regardless of which definition of "new" you mean.

(Since I can't edit the above, an additional thought here)

I think Thomas will agree that the vast majority of new creations are typically new variations on older games, such as the new one (I forget its name) which is a 2-deck version of Cruel.

Perhaps I didn't explain myself correctly or I am all wrong--I thought each "update" that is downloaded contains new games to test--there are quite a few in the "New Games" category and I've merely lost track of which ones are newer than others. I hate going through all my "most played" games to try to find out--just lazy, I guess.

Hi--well, some of the games are "new" in that they have never been in the "repertoire--???" of games before. I just wondered which ones were "new" to this latest download or beta test ---
