### 4/5 — Fun Game

*2026-01-19, version 3.3.7*

Great Game. The online mode is fun, though I have never seen other players in action at the same time. I’m not sure it is possible to see them. Rules are a little confusing.

### 5/5 — 42

*2025-04-02, version 3.3.7*

I’ve always liked minesweeper, but this makes more objectives and goals to work to making it more enticing.

### 4/5 — Fantastic but frustrating

*2025-03-21, version 3.3.7*

Game is great. Fantastic even I’ve spent way too many hours on this game but there are way too many ads and it’s getting worse. Ive been getting an ad upon opening the app and having not touched anything. First thing I see. Let me play the game a bit before you show me a 30 second unskipable ad.

### 5/5 — Сапер

*2025-03-09*

Суперский супер) не просто одна голимая классика, а есть ряд разных уровней, тут и пазлы собрать и уровни всегда разные, то в формате оружия, или фрукт и таких полно, класс-жду вторую часть на iOS
P.s. во второй части еще появиться сюжет) 
Класс, создателю респект)

### 5/5 — Excellent Reinvention of a Classic Game

*2025-03-03*

I mean, seriously, I have no notes. Just an excellent puzzler from top to bottom. It’s anti-frustration features have made the game absolutely addicting to me, because I no longer feel like I’m at the mercy of an unfair puzzle; if I succeed or fail, it’s on me, and I love that.

### 5/5 — Fantastic!

*2025-02-22, version 3.3.7*

Exactly what I’d hope for in a modern minesweeper game with extra fun features.

### 5/5 — Very entertaining

*2024-10-20, version 3.3.7*

Adds a wonderful thing to minesweeper that was missing from the beginning.  If you loved wasting hours playing back in the day you are in for a treat.

### 5/5 — Отлично

*2024-09-22*

Прикольное оформление, интересно проходить уровни и открывать предметы. Это просто потрясающе и интересно!

### 5/5 — Вторая часть

*2024-08-29*

Ооооочень жду вторую часть на телефон. В стиме уже преобрел

### 5/5 — Well done

*2024-08-08, version 3.3.7*

Neat concept and excellently done. A lot of different variety and also a lot of help. A fun brain teaser.

### 5/5 — Критика и оценка игры

*2024-08-07*

Начать хочу с того, что я прошел эту игру от и до (собрал абсолютно все коллекции, пазлы (купил прайм и не жалею), маунтов и за игровую валюту получил все улучшения в бесконечной башне и в общем наиграл 2000+ часов и закрепился в топе игроков мира, однако онлайн режим даже не трогал, потому речь пойдет исключительно о компании.
   Механика: 
   1-ое самое главное отличие данного сапера от остальных, которую я нигде более не видел - это когда у тебя в конце игры остается найти пару мин (и шанс у них 50/50) и ты можешь отметить эти мины, не раскрывая клетки, и закончить уровень.
   2-ое если мины закрывают тебе доступ вовнутрь (то есть например когда на краю карты образовалось 6 ячеек, где в 5 точно есть мина, и остается ячейка, которая находится внутри), то там 100% будет мина и не нужно гадать открывать ее или нет.
   3-е отличительной фишкой являются уровни с шестиугольными ячейками (знаю не мало таких игр, но в этой игре они завязаны на получение достижений и прохождении большинства уровней)
   Минусы: 
   - в эпизоде коллекций проскакивали уровни, где в одном альбоме есть одинаковые уровни (предметы), где они отличались только другим цветом, считаю это не таким большим минусом, однако хотелось побольше разнообразия от создателя спрайтов по игре.
   - к предыдущему минусу; режим бесконечная башня берет свои уровни из уровней коллекции, хотелось бы также особенных уровней для этого режима.
   - если вы не покупали премиум и пазлы, и за игровую валюты купили все улучшения в этом режиме, то 70 уровень ваш потолок, потому что вам чисто физически не хватит предметов для подъема выше.
   Плюсы:
   + хорошая графика, да, всем хейтерам, и графодрочерам посвещается, это ПИКСЕЛЬ-АРТ игра, и кто этого не понимает, пускай ищут другие игры, это не ваш сектор, фон игры, коллекции, пазлы и питомцы сделаны чудесно для такого дизайна.
   + игра не лагает и есть возможность настроить длительность постановки флага более детально, чем в других саперах - это радует, так как я привык к 125 мс, и только в паре игр такого жанра была столь точная настройка.
   + касательно классического режима - сапер есть сапер, плюс механики (см. выше), и детальная настройка уровня - количество мин, сложность, форма ячеек и что удивило - это настройка проходимости уровня, то есть с ней вы с 99% вероятностью пройдете самый сложный уровень в классическом режиме где отсутствуют шансы зайти в тупик.

От себя: чего действительно не хватает, так это, чтобы в бесконечной башне можно было до начала игры купить некоторые предметы для облегчения уровней за игровую валюту, а то, когда все прошел уже девать ее некуда

P.S: С нетерпением жду выхода второй части и удачи создателю игры в его творческих успехах)

### 5/5 — The best minesweeper app on the appstore

*2024-07-05, version 3.3.7*

Title says it all

### 5/5 — Hella Fun

*2024-07-05, version 3.3.7*

Good way to occupy my time.

### 5/5 — Best minesweeper.

*2024-06-07, version 3.3.7*

Absolute best minesweeper out there.

### 5/5 — Fresh spin on minesweeper, plus the original.

*2024-05-26*

This game is what you expect plus more. The mechanics are solid in that even though it is a phone version of minesweeper, you can still move fast like if you had 2 mouse buttons. There are some other modes too like puzzle and tower of power that give the game a novel twist. It’s the best minesweeper I’ve tried on a phone.

### 5/5 — More than just minesweeper

*2024-05-05, version 3.3.7*

it’s minesweeper but with more modes which is like such a W.

### 5/5 — Тема

*2024-05-02*

Огонь

### 5/5 — The best minesweeper

*2024-04-30*

I love minesweeper so I went through many different games on the appstore until I finally found this one. I’ve never played any version of minesweeper that has so much content. Genuinely, this is one of the only games I have ever purchased no ads for (every stupid game on the appstore has ads). I don’t really know what to say other than definitely try it. try it. try it. There’s even an online mode where everyone does a huge minesweep puzzle (I do wish there was PVP it’d be really fun). All in all, I literally cannot find a better minesweeper game than this. 10/10 wound sell my first newborn to play this.

edit: there’s a bug where the mine explodes when you put a flag sometimes, it’s annoying so please fix that

### 5/5 — Best minesweeper

*2024-04-11, version 3.3.4*

This is hands down the best minesweeper game I’ve downloaded. It has a reasonable amount of ads and entertaining variety of gameplay. Happy to have found it :)

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Ads

*2025-11-29, version 3.3.7*

Annoying popped up ads

### 1/5 — Actions are flipped

*2023-04-25, version 3.3.4*

Opening the squares should be the half second hold and marking them just a tap. Too easy to accidentally hit a square.

### 1/5 — persistent ads

*2022-09-20, version 3.3.2*

ads play before and after every game, audio blaring on each. i understand money is necessary, but this is crazy.

### 1/5 — In-App Purchase Broken

*2022-06-09, version 3.3.2*

This game is cute and fun, but the game froze when I chose to support the dev by purchasing the no-ads upgrade in-app. I’ve been charged for the purchase, but do not receive any of the effects in-app. Whenever I select Restore Purchases in-app, the game locks with a “Loading” message indefinitely until I close and restart it. Please repair the functionality of your purchase option, and I’d happily make this a 5-star review.

### 1/5 — Mandatory ads👎🏻

*2022-06-03, version 3.3.2*

Game has mandatory ads, instant uninstall.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2021-12-29, version 3.3.1*

Game is so glitchy. Finish collecting something then start another level and it shows that the things you just collected are gone. Frustrating and getting annoying.

### 1/5 — Bad optimization.

*2019-12-30*

Where is the optimization for iPhone 11 Pro Max?😭

**Developer response:** Hello, a major update is planned in January. It will definitely have optimization.

### 3/5 — Good, but premium fails to load

*2022-10-31, version 3.3.2*

Good game, but once I paid for premium it was never able to activate it/restore purchases. Stuck on 'loading...'. Could you please how to fix that?

### 3/5 — Game save needs improvement

*2022-05-17, version 3.3.2*

The game save should be initiated the moment you go into the game instead of having to play till episode 4 for the backup to start(ridiculous). Also for the custom mode, I can’t tell the difference between the classic and solvable mode because both also require luck and some 50/50 guessing. Please make the ‘solvable mode’ fully dependent on skill and remove the luck factor as well as the 50/50 guessing. Other than that, the game is good but the ads do get annoying overtime.

### 3/5 — Good game, but…

*2022-04-05, version 3.3.2*

I purchased Premium to play without ads, payment went through but Premium didn’t unlock. Had to request a refund. 

Would happily pay for Premium if I actually get the features. The game is really fun.

### 5/5 — 👍

*2026-05-25*

👍

**Developer response:** Здравствуйте, эта проблема была исправлена!

### 5/5 — great job! quite fun

*2026-03-13, version 3.4.0*

i like how the guidance is available and there’s shields to compensate for fat fingers!  one request: give us a toggleable prompt when we try to enter a collection that is completed with all variations completed to ask if we still want to proceed.

### 5/5 — New twist to a classic!

*2026-01-06, version 3.3.7*

The addition of building collections encourages me to continue playing and progress through the levels! Great fun with good music and interesting game mechanics.

### 5/5 — The Best

*2025-12-10, version 3.3.7*

Never stops being fun

### 5/5 — Отлично

*2025-10-29*

Для меня это лучший сапёр в appstore

### 5/5 — во👍👍👍👍

*2025-08-26*

Самый лучший сапёр на данный момент который мне попадался!!! Все просто и понятно, интересные коллекции, даже питомцы есть. Про музыку вообще отдельный разговор, она прекрасна как и все в этой игре. Низкий поклон разработчикам

### 5/5 — My Absolute Favorite Minesweeper

*2025-08-10*

Honestly, I’m pretty shocked that this game doesn’t have more reviews! I’m a huge Minesweeper lover, and this one is just too fun and addicting. I’ve played other Minesweepers, such as the Infinite Minesweeper, and other themed ones, but this one specifically has definitely jumped to the top of my list!
I have never played a “hexagonal” Minesweeper before, so being introduced to that was super refreshing. Being a perfectionist (who was once addicted to collecting Pets and Mounts among other things in World of Warcraft), I ADORE how much there is to collect in this game! It’s laid back and fun to mindlessly play, but isn’t afraid to give you a challenge sometimes. It’s also super cute, from the font and backgrounds to the adorable little pets.

TLDR;
Pros: 
» Works well with Apple Pencil
» Tons to do, lots to collect
» Super cute and unique level designs/styles
» Two different Minesweeper games (original and hexagonal)
» Includes classic Minesweeper mode
» Cute catchy music (some songs somewhat reminiscent of Legend of Zelda, imo)
» Satisfying sound effects
» Lots of QOL options

Cons:
» Some might get irritated by the ads (but there’s also a very cheap paid option to permanently disable ads) 
» Some skins behind paywall (*BUT, 	read below!)

Honestly, all the “cons” are related to the Premium but at the same time, with all that you get with the Premium (Skins, Pets, Backgrounds, Animations, No Ads?!) at the price it is ($2.99)?? It is 1000% worth it. 
I mean, if I saw this game on Steam with all it has and it was only $2.99? I’d buy it in a heartbeat. Plus, it supports the creator.

All in all, even -without- Premium, the game is so much fun and has tons to do even as a FTP. So, if you’re looking for a cute, fun, interactive and intuitive Minesweeper (or even just a classic Minesweeper), I’d recommend this game.

### 5/5 — Keeping it fresh

*2025-07-26, version 3.3.7*

Often the issue i have playing minesweeper is not being challenged or a goal when playing. I love the leveling system and reward system in the game. Cant wait for more!

### 5/5 — Огонь

*2025-07-26*

Антон Крюков, спасибо тебе за достойную реализацию. Уже лет 5 играю в твой Сапёр, сделано от души и для души)) Красава!!)

### 5/5 — Excellent game!

*2025-07-20*

I’ve been playing this game on and off for a year or two now and it never stops sucking me in! The collectible aspect of the game really is what keeps it alive for me (honestly the only way that I’ve been able to play minesweeper games in general XD). Keep up the good work! Really excited for when number makes it to the phone 👍
