I have 2 questions regarding the Beginner and Easy Cases.

How many total cases are in these 2 levels?

The other levels are not accessible. Is this because I'm not subscribed or do I have to solve a certain number of Beginner and Easy cases to get to these levels?

Thanks.

Rosarita,

The other levels are only available after you have reached a certain number of XP. As you gain more experience you will have the option to play harder cases. However once they are available, they will always be available to you.

Only beginner cases will be closed after a while, though I'm not sure whether that's based on number of cases, or XP.

Thanks for the reply.

I have noticed that beginner cases that I have tried are now not available. You just go on to the next case.

If you hold your mouse cursor over the grey (locked) cases, it'll tell you how much experience you need before you can play them.

In answer to your question about how many total cases there are in each level, each case is randomly generated so there's no limit.

Beginner cases are locked based on XP. There's a maximum XP limit for beginner cases.

Thanks. I have noticed that Beginner is now greyed out. Is there a max limit for the other levels?

no, the rest of them will not max out, once you can open them you can always open them assuming you don't have to bring yourself out of retirement and lose xp points

Jesse you can only do that in Internet Explorer. Not firefox or safari I don't think.

It worked for me in Firefox. I don't know about safari.

I use Firefox too no problems.
