A new release of Pretty Good Solitaire is now available. Version 9.1.0 is available for download from <http://www.goodsol.com/download.html>.

Also added is a new game type group, the Terrace type games. Many of the new games belong to this new group. This version also has the annual mass changes to the game difficulty ratings and the winning percentage in the help file. Many games had their number adjusted to reflect user statistics as posted on the web site, particularly those games added in 2001 and 2002. Some of these games are just now getting enough games played to get a sense of their difficulty.
This new version is a free upgrade for those who originally ordered the Quest Edition, 500 version, or version 9, or who paid to upgrade to those versions.
