### 4/5 — 単純、だけどハマる

*2019-10-11*

爆弾配置の基本パターンとその応用により8割は解けるが、…最後は度胸と運が試される！単純かつスリル満点のパズルゲーム、それが『マインスイーパー』！
昔からやってるけど、マジで飽きない！！

### 5/5 — Best Minesweeper App

*2019-08-02*

Best interface I've used.

Feature request: Support multitouch, in the sense that one may move the map with one finger while tapping mines with the other. This, plus a horizontal mode, would make this app 6/5 stars.

### 5/5 — Excellent App

*2019-06-30*

This is the one app that I will be truly sad if it becomes unavailable.  This app is simple and works beautifully.  I have mine set to metro so I have to pay attention to the numbers and not the colors.  I hope this app gets all the support it needs to remain active.

### 4/5 — Great Minesweeper App

*2019-06-29, version 1.43*

Love the game!  I’ve emailed the developer to please make the game for Android for the longest time, but I guess it will never happen. No other app for minesweeper like this one. Oh well...so sad. I’d give it 5 stars if it came to android. 😔

### 5/5 — ナイス

*2018-12-29*

「昔からPCでやってて好きなゲーム。最初スクロールに少し戸惑うが、慣れると気にならないw無料版は広告で良く固まるようになり、有料版を購入で正解d(￣ ￣)   」と送信してない15年ぐらい前のレビューが残ってた(笑)今でもヒマがあれば遊んでます。

### 5/5 — 地頭を上げる

*2018-10-16*

物事の基礎を向上させ、学業及びビジネスの幅を拡張させるゲームです。

### 5/5 — Great interface!!

*2018-07-05*

This is one of the only apps that I paid money for, and the reason is that it simply nailed the minesweeper touchscreen interface like no other app has. 

It's pretty much the only game I've kept on my phone over the years, not only because minesweeper is such a wonderful and intellectually-stimulating game, but also because it makes so much sense as a touchscreen experience! 

In flagging mode you can go very fast, and although you might hit a wrong tile once in a while, enough practice will give you the control to play without errors. 

I recommend the blue and orange modern layout, it's aesthetically quite pleasing and doesn't hurt your eyes when playing at night. 

In short, this app provides the ultimate touchscreen minesweeper experience, and I recommend it to anyone with any interest in challenging puzzle games!

### 5/5 — Works well

*2017-11-11*

I tried several Minesweeper games before choosing this one. It is fast, fully configurable, works consistently. The price to remove ads seems fair to me; writing and supporting software takes a lot of work.

### 5/5 — Good

*2017-10-04*

Good.

### 5/5 — Best game ever!!!

*2017-06-26*

I really love this game a lot, it is the only game I play and I am great at it, it helps me with my mental focus.

### 5/5 — 普通に面白い

*2017-04-07*

マインスイーパー好きは辞めれなくなります！

### 4/5 — Fantastic game.  Highly recommend.

*2016-12-22, version 1.42*

Fantastic game.  Highly recommend.

### 5/5 — Definitely addictive

*2016-08-15*

A game worth having!

### 4/5 — Does the job

*2016-08-15*

Works as expected. Would be good to have more levels than beginner.

### 5/5 — 時間潰し最適

### 1/5 — Needs Updating!

*2026-01-27*

I have enjoyed this app for many years, but the new iOS updates limit the game to just a blank screen.  I have been asking for help since August 2025.  There is no solid update or active assistance with this.  Spica doesn’t care anymore!

### 1/5 — びみょー

*2025-12-20*

微妙です、マスの見た目とか得られるけどなんか見にくい。
あと印が旗だけなのもちょっと、ハテナとかそこら辺も欲しい。
あと、9×9と16×16、16×30の3種類しかマス数がない。
もっと増やして欲しいこれなら無料のやつの方がいい。お金で買う価値ないって感じする。

### 1/5 — WARNING, DO NOT DOWNLOAD UNLESS YOU LIKE TO BE MISERABLE!!!

*2015-07-26, version 1.41*

Complete garbage. I just went twelve games in a row that came down to two blocks. One is a mine, the other isn't. Every time it's the wrong one. Completely pointless to have to guess which is a mine and then lose the game. No brain or strategy required. Until they update, get a different one.

### 2/5 — 6-25-25 not working

*2025-06-25, version 1.46*

Currently the advanced level not working since update. The bug fixes created a bug that doesn’t allow you to play. It’s been over a week. Not sure if they are even going to try and fix that this point.

### 3/5 — Good but

*2017-02-25*

Good but update so it's not an app from iOS 5 please. Thank you

### 3/5 — スイーパー

*2015-12-10*

フツー

### 3/5 — Good

*2014-03-28, version 1.38*

Good.

### 3/5 — Great Game

*2013-11-17, version 1.37*

Awesome game but this new update has a tendency to switch modes for no reason. One second your flagging mines and then the next mine you flag goes off because the mode switched on you without notice.

### 3/5 — This could be the one you want

*2013-03-15*

Great minesweeper. However, with iPad, the screen fails to re-size with intermediate and advanced levels, so you are having to re-position the playing field so it is visible through a much smaller window. It's a shame the game can't take advantage of the entire display.

### 3/5 — Great game

*2012-06-07, version 1.31*

Just like the on the computer

### 5/5 — The best

*2026-04-28*

Simply the best puzzle game in the world. Fantastic app version with authentic interface. I’ve had this for over a decade and still play regularly.

### 5/5 — My favorite app

*2024-12-07*

I love this app so much. Well worth the investment to go premium. I have over 5000 games played on advanced itself. No wifi needed so it’s a great game no matter where you are.

### 5/5 — 広告なしでストレスフリー

*2024-11-03*

広告なしのマインスイーパー探してたので嬉しいです！
マスの個数や爆弾の数カスタマイズできるのも良いです。
たくさん遊びます！

### 5/5 — great

*2023-10-24*

One of the perfect game

### 5/5 — Works

*2023-03-24*

It’s minesweeper it works 👍

### 5/5 — Great App With Great Privacy!

*2022-06-18*

The game is exactly what was advertised, which is all I needed. The controls are intuitive and work well consistently. I also appreciate the options for customization, both for the visuals and the settings. 

The thing that made me pick this app over all the others though was the company’s privacy policy. This was the only Minesweeper app I saw that doesn’t sell your personal data, and that’s a rare thing these days! So to Spica, thank you for creating a great app while also having a great privacy policy. I’ll be sure to look out for future apps!

### 5/5 — Advanced game not working

*2022-02-26*

I can play up to intermediate but does not show the board above intermediate. If I tap the blank area it responds but cannot be seen. 

Updated my rating because the developers worked with me to solve this issue. If anyone has this issue, you need to set your iPhone’s display from zoomed to standard

### 5/5 — Great app

*2020-08-21*

I’ve been using this app for years.. 
 > 15,000 games and still lovin’ it

### 5/5 — This IS the Minesweeper you want!

*2020-02-05*

Works great, configurable to your play style, and most importantly NO ADS!  Totally worth the $2 or whatever trivial amount they’re charging.

### 5/5 — Great!

*2019-12-02*

Love the themes. Works flawlessly. A lot of fun.
