I am one of those who is more understanding on the retiring of a lot of the things that are on Pogo.

Yeah... me, too! Me, too!

Thank you for the update. What I see them doing is adding games every month and hoping they will somehow bring some of the older games converted. I am one of those who is more understanding on the retiring of a lot of the things that are on Pogo.

I am happy to see the Jungle Gin update, which also gives me hope that they will bring back other classic games.

Jungle Gin is one of my favorites! I'm so glad it's coming back!!

Greetings
Let me tell you how disappointed I am with the "Early Access Experience". I cannot navigate the layout. Yes, it might be me. I sure wish Pogo would leave well enough alone. I know they will have to convert from Flash as they did with Java. This might put the "Frosting on the Cake for me". I've been looking for ways of spending my spare time.

What say you,
S1lent aka Ken #2

I agree with you, S1lent. I don't like the new site. I find it difficult and inconvenient to navigate. I know there is a learning curve but I find it to not be intuitive at all. I keep getting back to the classic site ASAP

LittleFawn · December 21, 2019, 06:54:22 PM

The only hard thing to navigate for me is the challenge central. Other then that I can get around with no problem. They do need to find an easier way for that page.

MsMissy · December 22, 2019, 05:59:01 AM

I don't care much for the Early Access also. theydont seem to have much of the older games . I also prefer the classic site.

Stinkerbell · December 22, 2019, 07:13:50 AM

Yeah... I'm with Ken2 and Missy... I'm having a rough time adjusting to the "new improved" site, but it's probably my old age getting in the way.

I will say this, though... I feel like new site loads faster. I'm sure I'll get the hang of it. Eventually. Someday. Maybe.

Mayhem · December 23, 2019, 12:44:21 AM

To get used to the new site, I'm trying to keep the classic version going on Edge and the new Pogo experience on Chrome.

Then I can have both without having to flick the switch.

MsMissy · December 23, 2019, 08:15:18 AM

Stinkerbell, im also got that old age problem too. Some of the new things they have today, bothers me as I hate changes in sometime I like not to change.
