Shinro Sudoku Minesweeper User Reviews

Lots of guessing

Some logic used but also a lot of guessing is involved. Frustrating for young kids trying to make sense of the game. Addictive for adults who insist on continually trying to beat it!

Fun until you have to guess

Game play is fun but these aren't true logic puzzles. There are many times when you can't deduce the solution so it's much more like minesweeper than a logic game. I think this could be fixed by the game designers if they wanted to. It's frustrating to have a chain of successes broken by pure dumb luck.

Shinro...nuff said lol

Maaan, who CARES about about problems when the game is free and fun?! I honestly haven't had a problem with this app as of yet, and it's a great twist on minesweeper. Fun for beginners who get frustrated with the generic minesweeper games...bottom line.

Shinro

Addictive. A great little upgrade to minesweeper.
I'd really love to be able to choose different theme colors. I'm kind of sick of looking at brown. :)

Great game

I love this game. No matter how many times I play, it still makes me think. The only thing I would change is that when you have a spot flagged, you could run your finger over it without the flag disappearing.

Challenging

Great puzzle game. I only wish once I flagged a space that I could drag my finger over it when clearing the rest of the row without detonating the mines.

Great variation on Minesweeper

Since logic is required to solve each puzzle, there is virtually no set up that makes you have to guessโ€”if it's a hard one, you just have to stop and think it out. What more can I say? It's the fun formula of Minesweeper gameplay merged with the fun logical approach of Sudoku. My only complaint is that which I find with most games on the iPhone: I can't see through my fingers, so when tiles or touchscreen buttons are smaller than my fingers, it can sometimes be a little easy to miss by a few centimeters and totally fail on account of it. But trivial pettiness aside, it's great game, especially for its price.

Great game

What would make this a perfect game, is when there's a flag on the square your not able to detonate the bomb underneath. I accidentally blow up flagged bombs all the time. I think they are safe with the flag, but they're not. Please make this change!

Hard to put down

Just like a good book, this app is hard to put down once you start. [2nd request]

Bring your luck!

Interesting game. Has a lot of potential to be addicting. Unlike sudoku, there are many instances where pure luck takes precedence over skill. The arrows point in the direction of a mine, but sometimes the mine is 5 or 6 blocks away. With this set up, you can only deduce so far before having to flip a coin. I am a decent puzzle solver, so a lack of skills argument is not supported.
