### 5/5 — Cute, Cozy, and Fun!

*2026-07-23*

This is such a cozy little gem! Easy to follow, lots of options for customization, and perfect when you have just a few minutes to play. I love that you have the ability to befriend animals and log interesting finds in the journal. So cute!

### 4/5 — So fun and cute!

*2026-01-23*

I adore this game but I wish it was faster to get marshmallows and cheaper to get decorations 🥲

### 3/5 — Fun, but impossible to buy decorations.

*2026-01-01*

This game is really fun and I love the concept and style, BUT!!! It’s *impossible* to purchase decorations. I’ve been playing for a week and can still barely afford a decoration

### 4/5 — Evrything good except…

*2025-12-24*

I really liked the concept and no middle ads perfect, however you cant buy items easily; it takes a lot of coins to buy 1 item and i wish they update the game better like think from the gamers perspective.. very frustrated at certain  point.. only 6 max mashmellow? Seriously? and the DOG! 😡😡😡Please provide in setting or button that DOG is not following you while you r playing game. It really distracts the way to click the land!!! Also make the whole land more visible in the screen. The space around the land is very small and we have to keep moving around while playing and it kept accidently clicking the land and make you die. I believe you guys can do better please. Otherwise, if you know how to play the game you will like it.

### 5/5 — This game is awesome.

*2025-12-19*

This game is so fun!!! My only complaint is that all the decorations cost too much, but overall I love the aesthetic of this game!!

### 5/5 — Lovely

*2025-12-16*

I’m enjoying this game very much. It’s beautiful & satisfying. 
My only quibble is that the little rabbit doesn’t hop! Not really a problem, of course, just something I noticed.

### 4/5 — 대체로 좋은데 아쉬운점

*2025-10-15, version 1.0.9*

10장 플레이하고 있는 유전데요
1. 몇몇 판 숫자 가독성이 너무 나쁩니다
191부터 채도랑 명도랑 대비감이 왜이러나요 가을에도 그랬는데 겨울 오고 살거같더니만 눈이 다 부십니다
제발 색상좀 어캐해주세요
2. 클로버 드롭율 넘 낮아서 뒤로갈수록 시도하려면 많이 필요한데 깨기에 운이 많이 필요함

### 2/5 — 運要素が多すぎてゲームとしては粗悪

*2025-10-10, version 1.0.9*

いわゆるマインスイーパーです。時間制限もなく、静かなBGMの中でゆっくり遊べる癒されるゲーム仕様で、課金や広告も少なく(広告は選べば見れるが強制のものは今の所ない)、そのゆっくりした進度は好きで、序盤は楽しく遊んでいました。

ただ、レベルが上がるとそのレベルに応じて地雷も増える仕様のため、1プレイにかける時間が上がって最初ほど気軽に遊べなくなる上、運要素が強くなって全く成果が得られないゲームが続き意気消沈することが増えていきました。私は第6章まで進めましたが、1プレイ時間に20分ほどかかります。それで最後に運任せの地雷を踏んだ時のやるせなさときたら…。
途中保存もきかず、一度画面を閉じたら途中までのゲームデータは消えてしまうのも問題。まとまった30分ほどの時間をマインスイーパだけに割くのは、ある程度の年齢のプレーヤーならかなり無理があるのではないでしょうか。難易度的に子供向けでもないですし。

なお4章以降、周りの草や花がゲーム画面にかぶさってくることが増え、特にそれが青や緑の植物だと、地雷の数字が非常に読みにくくなり、ミスタッチが増えました。飾りはいいけどゲームに影響が出るのは本末転倒。どうにかして欲しいです。

また序盤のマシュマロの上限は5個ですが、うち３つは確実に最初の数歩で踏む地雷で無駄になくなります。昔Windowsに入っていたデフォのライフ無制限マインスイーパですらそこはもう少し親切でした。
お助けアイテム類もそれぞれ一度に一個しか買えない、しかもそのアイテムを得るためのクローバーは、1ゲームで得られる数は3-4個が限度です。それなのに勘で押さなきゃいけない地雷は5箇所以上あることもあり、毎回そんな量のアイテムなど買えず、同じレベルをもう100回ほど繰り返して嫌になりました。

どうやら今ならレベル100くらいで上位3%くらいになるようですが、それでも集められたコインは総額3000もいかなかったと思います。服やデコレーションアイテムは一つ500コインくらいだし、次の章に進むのも5章から6章で270コイン、余計なものを買う余裕がなく、買ったアイテムはわずか３つほどです。とてもではないですが、ここの紹介画像にあるようなアイテムの量が買えるほどに至ることは当分ありません。

### 5/5 — 可愛くて面白い最高のゲーム

*2025-10-08, version 1.0.9*

マインスイーパー自体初めてやったがとても面白い。デザインがとても良く、BGMも癒される。スタミナが焼きマシュマロなのが可愛い。動植物もとても可愛い。
あまり長時間プレイ出来ないようになっているのも良心的と感じる。課金要素がほぼないのも好ましい。逆に課金して応援したくなる。

### 2/5 — かわいいけど大変

*2025-10-03, version 1.0.9*

デザイン、世界観が好みで可愛いけど、コインが非常にたまりにくい。一番最初に穴を掘る時が運ゲーで、運が悪いとすぐゲームオーバーになる。
広告を見たら１回だけコンティニューができるなどしてほしい。
操作の部分で、旗を立てた後取り消すことはできるけど、間違ってタップしてしまった後は操作の取り消しができない(長押ししても間に合わない)ので、できるように改善してほしい。
あと犬がついてきて可愛いけど、ちょっと邪魔なので、選択できるようにしてほしい。それか外で待機しててほしい。
