A little annoying

It’s a little annoying to play. You can quite literally only play the easy and medium levels and then the dev wants you to pay for the hard and expert levels. Daily challenge, etc. is also locked behind paywall. ‘Freemium’.

Straight to the Point

I’ve tried a several different Minesweeper apps and this one is exactly what I was looking for. There are zero ads and you can just easily play Minesweeper. It also takes advantage of Game Center so you can easily compete with your friends and the global leaderboard. Hard and Expert modes are locked behind the full game purchase but at just $1.99 I think it’s absolutely worth it.

Best ui in minesweeper/ must play!!

I have been trying to play minesweeper in phone for a while, however I don’t like the ui of minesweeper game which look like it from 1990 and this game have the best ui. Simple and beautiful.

Response from developer

Great to hear you like the game. Thanks for the review!

generally good but it cuts out music when you open the app

Response from developer

Hi! I've made some improvements and the next release of the app will let you listen to music while playing Minesweeper. Hope you enjoy the changes as they roll out!

Good app with one request

This app is great! I just wish it wouldn’t pause and override audio that I play from another app in the background. It even does this when I turn off sound, which doesn’t make sense.

Response from developer

Glad you like the app! I've made some changes and the next release of the app will let you listen to music or podcasts while playing Minesweeper. Hope you enjoy the changes as they roll out. Thanks for the review!

Fun game

I tried a bunch of different minesweeper games and this was my favorite. The only suggestion I have to make it a 5 star is to swap what a click and a long press does.

Response from developer

Glad you like the game! You can swap click and long press actions by tapping on the Flagging Control located in the top right corner of the screen. Hope this works for you. Thanks!

Great app with some room for improvement

This app is really great. I’m so glad for a game app that doesn’t include all kinds of trackers. The biggest area for improvement is how the app behaves in the background. When I leave the app in the middle of a game but don’t fully close it, the timer continues to roll and sometimes when it’s been long enough the app loses game progress. Please make it so that the timer stops upon exit and the app is better able to retain game progress in the background.

Hi, Glad you like the app! I've made changes to the latest version to improve the game experience when the app moves to the background. The timer now pauses when the app deactivates and resumes when the app returns. Also, the game state is saved so that you can continue the game after it has been in the background. Hope you like the changes!

Laggy and Slow

Laggy, slow, even the main menu is slow with its transitions. I hate that you can't decide to make flag long press or short press and the choice is just forced on you. The only reason I downloaded this game was that the aesthetics were reasonably nice looking, but 100% not worth. Also, the expert and hard levels are paywalled

Response from developer

Hi, Please try the latest version! Several performance improvements have been added and transitions are now faster and smoother. There is also a new flagging control that lets you choose how to flag and clear cells. Coming soon, I plan to add more features to the in-app purchase. Hope you enjoy the changes!

Great classic game!

My only desire is to offer an alternate way for flagging. I prefer left-click/right-click to short-click/long-click....yep, even on a Mac :)

Maybe a third option: click/shift-click ?

Thanks for the great fun!

Response from developer

Some good news--the latest release now supports right-clicks (or Control-clicks) for flagging cells. Hope you like it!
