### 4/5 — Best Minesweeper however…

*2026-05-13, version 1.19*

My only complaint is that you can lose lives on your first go, this means that if you die on your first attempt there’s no point to keep going so it’s basically an auto restart, I think you shouldn’t be able to lose lives on your first attempt

### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-04-19, version 1.19*

Great and free and no ads. 
Can you add a way to see your rank in comparison to total players? Im rank 57 and I don’t even know if I’m like 57/1000 or like 57/60 or sum. Thanks.

### 5/5 — Fire

*2025-12-13, version 1.19*

The design is way better than retro

### 5/5 — 🐐

*2025-10-29, version 1.19*

No adds, takes up no space

### 4/5 — Very good!

*2025-05-28, version 1.19*

Probably the most polished version of minesweeper on the App Store, the only thing I’d like is a button to restart the game with all lives - rather than needing to purposefully click the minds to fail and restart. This has left me with an abysmal win ratio lol

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2025-02-23, version 1.19*

I could rate this one star, but that’s my skill, and this is about the game, which is 5 stars definitely! First money-free AND ad-free game I ever bought. Thank you so much!

### 4/5 — Nice App

*2024-12-19, version 1.19*

Love the modern look. 
Two cells don’t take a flag: top row second from left, bottom row second from right.

### 5/5 — underrated and best implementation of the game

*2024-12-18, version 1.19*

i really love the simplicity and the aesthetics of the game. the minimalism makes it so enjoyable. no annoying menus or settings or anything. great job making it as straightforward as possible. i’m usually not one to write reviews but i was appalled to see such a low number of ratings. i literally can’t come up w something you guys can improve on the game. FLAWLESS!!!

### 5/5 — Найкраща гра типу Minesweeper

*2024-12-17, version 1.19*

Розробнику реально респект за такий продукт. Гра заслуговує на всі 5 зірочок не тільки через відсутність реклами, а ще й за чудовий дизайн. Саме з цієї гри я почав свій шлях до професійного рівня. Звичайний Minesweeper зовсім не заходить молодому поколінню, а такий підхід до розробки підігріває інтерес у дітей до легендарних ігор, які ще й розвивають мислення.
Було б дуже цікаво бачити топ найкращих гравців. Я зупинився на «Краще ніж 99% гравців», але хотілось би побачити топ найкращий. Як на мене, це створить спортивний азарт і закличе нових гравців. Сподіваюсь, що з часом Mines зʼявиться й на ПК.

### 4/5 — just enough

*2024-09-15, version 1.19*

runs and plays well, and clean. I think a no-guess mode would be nice though

also im #361 in the rankings right now!!!
