Solo Joe Climbing Game

Did anyone ever play the Solo Joe 2 climbing game back in the day? I used to play it some 15 years ago. Did my knee in and am gonna be on the couch for a while. Feeling nostalgic and want to pick it up again. I've reached out to the company to register but havent heard back yet. Hoping by some miracle someone might remember the game and still have a key.

No but looks decent. Now where my GIRPers at?!?!

I played it for a while years ago.  Can't help with a key - the computer it was installed on is long since dead.  I remember finding a bug on one climb that let your character climb in mid air until you ran out of energy.

Whoa this game is amazing. Not just a quick action game, has in depth RPG elements. Hopefully someone can find a registration key.

I believe it's the same Dana that owns The Goat Fort. You could try the contact info there.

This is awesome. A friend recommended this to me about a month ago. I just got the demo also.

Let me know if ya’ll figure it out. I’ll look too. 

Wow, guys, it has been a wild week. I reached out to Dana as per Randy’s comment. I got in touch with the creator of Solo Joe who has a key for registration of the game!!! He graciously allowed me to share with anyone interested in trying the game

Next time I’m headed to the states for a climbing trip I’m gonna try pop into The Goat Fort for a quick climb and to say hello and thanks. I encourage anyone else stoked on solo joe to do the same.

I’m so happy right now.

Thanks to Dana for making the game and you for reaching out. The game is super detailed (and not easy at all). you can tell a lot of love went into creating it. lots of climber in-jokes

This game is great. My character has decked 5 times projecting a 5.6 because he can't remember which side of his harness he keeps the draws.

Anybody else old enough to remember Solo Joe or Gunther's Big Day Out?

Prav, go into "Manage Gear" and check if there is anything other than quickdraws on your harness. If there is, remove it. I was having trouble hanging draws on bolts because I also had a carabiner on my harness. So i would try grab a draw but my character was grabbing the biner. If there are only draws on your harness either the left or right arrows will grab you a draw.

I'm even more impressed with the game today than I was 10 years ago. The guidebook descriptions of the routes are so good. To me, this is the climbing game that best imitates the feeling of actually climbing. Has everything from gear management to different types of cruxes (technical, powerful, balancy, dynos and deadpoints).

This game is legit!
