Community Insight:
It works well but the ads are pretty annoying with no way to get rid of them.
Very fun the game we spend a lot of time for unlock achievements and enjoy a lot. We just wish that in a future update have the option that if we have the bomb mark and we press the number it clear the space around as others minesweeper games do. Idk if we explained well enough. Thanks a lot.
We like this game a lot. You cant do the custom sizes like the Windows original, but it does have 3 skill levels (board sizes). Banner ad during game and full-screen after each game. Id gladly pay a few dollars to remove the ads but we see no option to do so.
Just like the original, but without the mouse our speeds is not as good as it was years ago.
The game board is visually appealing. However, Im having the exact same issues as another reviewer from a year ago. The game often wont reset after a win. When you exit and retry, the timer keeps going and it wont let you start a new game. Seems like after a year, this bug would be fixed. The only way Ive been able to overcome this is to delete the game and then reinstall it.
This was a great app until the last update, now only crashes when trying to open.
Love it. Totally reminds us of the original. And of how many times we would sit at the computer pulling out hair. Only thing we would like to see is more levels of difficulty. We've beaten all three and would just like more challenges. But thank you for the game.
Very much like the original. But sometimes it won't reset to a new game when finished. The timer keeps going & after we get the "victory " banner, we try to start a new one & game shuts off. When we turn it back on, it's still stuck on the just completed game & process starts all over. We even shut iPad completely off & rebooted–didn't help.
Excellent. Lots of fun. Addictive.
Man even easy is still tough, now we remember how hard it was back then too.
We like the game but the stats won't always update.
Pretty much exactly the same game we wasted so much time on so long ago.
Everything appears to be working and good.
Everyone we lose a round it sends us to our home screen. It is quite annoying. Fun otherwise. Loved this game on the computer love it now. Just fix it so it didn't send us to the home screen.
This game is awesome never crashes and is super fun! For all the people out there who love challenges then this is the PERFECT game for you!!! We definitely recommend this app this is no joke we are DEAD serious.
This game is fun to play and works great… When not crashing. Happens all the time.
