### 3/5 — No landscape shaped play field

*2026-09-20*

The puzzle area seems to be permanently oriented in portrait style. You can turn your iPad in landscape to play a game horizontally, but the game board remains in portrait…  so to fill up your screen, you have to pinch zoom and then use your finger to scroll around the game area.  I really wish the Minesweeper play area would auto rotate to fill the screen landscape instead of maintaining its portrait view… I did see that it’s possible to create a custom play area and you can adjust the rows and columns to create a landscape shape but this is not really what I’m talking about. It would be great for the play area to auto scale to landscape or portrait, depending on how you need to rotate your iPad so that depending on how your day is going, you can maintain the same game.

**Developer response:** Hi! You're right, and I'm sorry. Thank you for explaining it so precisely.

Coming shortly: turn your iPad and the board turns with it, same game, nothing to pinch. The whole app suits iPad and landscape far better now.

Thank you for the feedback and making Onyx better :)

### 5/5 — One of the best there is!

*2026-09-15*

They obviously put a lot of work into the game. The UI is clean with no clutter, no micro transactions, no ads and very nice icons. Polish they have nice puzzles and it is very entertaining.

### 5/5 — Really smooth
