### 4/5 — Hard but nice

*2025-06-21*

Not bad for me, I reckon it is a little hard. I basically just do the very easy or the easy levels.

### 4/5 — Preety good, but

*2022-06-12, version 2.1*

I Would like a harder difficulty, like in the computer version.

### 3/5 — Where have the harder difficulty games gone?

*2020-08-12*

Really love playing minesweeper, great way to pass time, and have loved this app for it. 
What I don’t understand is why with the latest update the option of changing difficulty level has been removed? I prefer playing the larger fields which are more difficult

### 2/5 — Frustrated

*2019-11-14*

Just saw review by someone having issues with expert puzzle level, I haven’t got out of hard. Multiple issues. I had every square either marked with a bomb or empty & the counter said I still needed 4 bombs. Also same puzzle (& others) there were squares that read a certain number of bombs but all squares touching them were numbers or empty. Really enjoyed it til that happened.

### 2/5 — Trop de pubs!!!

*2019-11-05*

Une partie gagnée = 1 pub .... c’est pénible

### 4/5 — Great, just needs one little tweak

*2019-10-23*

The one addition I would make is that you should be able to click on an exposed number, and if the number of flagged squares surrounding it equals the number, then it should open up the remainder of the 9 surrounding squares, like the windows version - maybe a long press like planting a flag?

### 2/5 — Minesweeper

*2019-10-16*

Freezes up way too much.  Screen freezes.  Game crashes.

### 2/5 — No app support, recent update glitches

*2019-09-02*

I was glad to see the recent update to add different difficulty levels. However, the expert puzzle isn’t formatted correctly, with active cells that fall below the bottom of the visible screen on my iPad. (I am NOT zoomed in.) Took a screenshot to send to the support group to let them know of this issue, but the link to app support here just goes to a webpage offering another one of their games!  Nice game, but if they offer no way to contact them, they don’t want to improve via user feedback.

### 3/5 — Best minesweeper

*2019-09-01*

Single vibrate when flag is placed along with a little graphic confirming the flag.  You don’t have to hold the space very long for the flag to appear ... this makes it far superior than any other minesweeper I’ve played.

There is also an expert level which is challenging.  You can zoom in and out and move around tree board easily.

### 2/5 — Nach jedem

*2019-08-25*

Spiel ein Werbespot? Nervig ...

### 2/5 — Annoying after a bit

*2019-05-29*

The interface has issues. You can’t easily press on corners.  It ignores them for the first several presses.   The ads after every game that go on forever....  the most annoying though is that there is only one level.  You can not change the number of mines or grid size.   For a free game, I could accept for awhile.  Good luck working the bugs out.  I would like this game once the glitches are dealt with!

### 3/5 — None

*2019-03-15*

Too hard to hit the correct square with fingers

### 3/5 — Ads are annoying

*2019-01-26*

I played this game when I was a kid and really liked it. This version is nothing different than the original except the excessive amount of ads. It would be nice if there was a way to disable the ads but there isn’t.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Feature request

*2025-08-19*

Needs to have an undo to correct mistakes

**Developer response:** Thank you for the review Ken, our team will look into adding that feature for our next update!

### 1/5 — Don’t Download!

*2021-08-02, version 2.1*

It won’t even load, you’ll be staring at the screen the whole time!

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2020-04-22*

Too many ads between games

### 1/5 — If fix

*2020-02-12*

Wouldn’t let me plant a flag on last two squares (one with flag, one open)

Don’t like  your flag planting.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2020-02-01*

Game is fundamentally broken. It will not correctly calculate how many mines are near a cell at the bottom of the screen, or its cutting off a row from the bottom. Maybe it works on iphone but not on iPad. Get another app. Don’t waste your time. Lots of free minesweeper games on the App Store.

### 1/5 — Ads suck

*2019-02-25*

Banner ads ok, but 30 second full page ones are bad.  Deleted!

### 1/5 — too many ads

*2019-01-16*

DONT INSTALL. WAY TOO MANY ADS.

### 1/5 — Why

*2019-01-04*

It is all luck and it doesn’t work properly

### 1/5 — Les niveaux?

*2018-10-06*

Devrais avoir des niveaux plus difficiles

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2018-10-05*

Really? An uninterrupted ad after each game? Delete!

### 5/5 — Wonderful game

*2020-01-14, version 1.9*

I enjoyed playing this game; it exercises one’s mind and teaches one to stay focused at all times.

### 5/5 — Ads with noise, and crappy power hog
