Minesweeper Reviews

It's Minesweeper, but full-screen and with meh background music. 100% achievement completion can be done in a couple minutes, there's no need to know how to play the game. It just takes some difficulty tweaking.

I really thought this was going to be a good iteration of Minesweeper. I really like Minesweeper. But this one isn't for me. Right off the bat, I tried clicking the number in which all the mines were ready, but to my surprise, it didn't made the squares visible for me to continue playing at a much faster pace, which absolutely killed my mood, because I find it challenging to try and beat my personal time scores, and unfortunately, you can't really do it in this game. I then immediately came to my senses and muted the obnoxious background music that was bugging me, really not that necessary for a game like this, maybe if the developer wanted to add music, calmer music would've been fine. The presentation when you boot the game is also kind of shocking, and the decision to put the initial square of the game as small as possible is certainly a choice... I tried the other gamemodes: The hexcells mode is interesting, but with all mentioned before, I can't get myself to play a game in this state. The 3D one is something else, not my cup of tea. And the endless mode is sorta boring, level 2 has the same bombs, in the same place, as well as level 3, and so on. Also, the UI is kinda bland and basic, and all over the place with the buttons. The settings don't save once you leave, so you have to mute the music every time you open the game. Really did not like this iteration of the game, specially with that one missing feature to liberate the squares that are ready, being a necessary feature to complete the game faster.
