Mineswifter (Minesweeper)

It is simple and very well made! I Love it!

Great game and I play it all of the time. It’s worth the little bit the money the developer asks for it. Well thought out. Your first click is NEVER a mine and is ALWAYS playable! Love the daily challenges and now crave just the most difficult ones because I’ve played so (too) much :-). It’s addictive in an innocent way because it is a challenge. If you play without using flags you will still have to guess unless you can keep a count in your head, which I can not unfortunately but after a while you can usually guess fairly accurately. Do yourself a favor and read up on the tricks of the game to make it go a bit smoother for you. ie: 121, 1221, 11. Again, great well made game.

My problem with minesweeper was always that you’re forced to guess. Imo, that should never be the case in a puzzle game. This variation did exactly what I wanted out of minesweeper. If I was able to request one change to this app, it would be to add an ability to place “dummy flags”. When nothing on the board is jumping out at me as a guaranteed bomb/free cell, I’ll place down some flags as a “non-commital guess” and see what the board looks like with that permutation. Sometimes, I’ll reach a paradox that proves the starting “guess” can’t be possible so I know a flag cannot be there and can uncover that cell. Occasionally though while doing this strategy, I’ll missclick somewhere on the board (which is easy to do with thumbs on a touch screen) which can cause my “non-commitall guesses” to be committed. Which can result me in losing the game off a missclick. If we had a way to place “dummy flags” that have a different colour and/or shape (maybe a question mark), we could use this strategy for visualizing the board in different possible configurations without being at risk of a missclick losing the game. Thank you!

In a sea of dated Minesweeper apps, this modern take achieves perfection.

I like the look and feel very much, and I really enjoy the daily challenges. I wish more statistics were available for the games though. For example, I would like to know what the average time to complete each challenge was for perfect games. I would also like to see what percentage of players used no flags, as that is how I play. While I think this is the best minesweeper app for iOS, visually, I still miss the feature from the app I used on my android phone where after you won a game it would play a quick Timelapse of your progress in solving the puzzle. It was always very satisfying to see that at the end.

absolutely love this app. the daily challenges are fun and the user experience is wonderful. the themes are all cute, but i do wish there was a dark mode option for those bedtime procrastination games. otherwise phenomenal

Great app. My only gripe is it does not have a custom difficulty setting.

When you *know* there’s a solution, you are forced to learn patterns you may have missed in normal minesweeper. Thus this makes you better at the game! There is a whole class of probability problems which are necessarily excluded from this game, but that’s okay.

Flag toggle box needs to be bigger. Constantly misclicking mines thinking I’ve toggled the flag button.
