### 1/5 — Very Bad User Experience on the iPhone

*2026-02-06*

There is a lack of possibility to undo the last move. This is absolutely necessary!
In case you perform a move mistakenly you need to restart the game completely and start from the beginning !
This is by far frustrating, and lead me to the conclusion not to recommend the game at all although the idea of the game is great !

### 2/5 — Fun, but battery drain

*2026-02-04*

Love the premise, the game itself is good.

The battery drain is unbelievable.  I can literally watch it happening, even when I’m not doing anything.

It’s almost like you’re using my iPad to do crypto mining or something.  Totally not cool.

### 2/5 — great game, bad mobile excecution

*2025-02-13*

the levels and the game in general are as good as the great original on PC. the logic puzzles are top in the genre…
…BUT: the bigger levels are basically unplayable, at least on the ipad. the „normal“ view is way to zoomed out and there is no seamless zooming possible. you only get one other view that’s way too zoomed in and in this view the puzzle is super pixelated. 
this seems like such an oversight, i can’t even imagine how it happened. i can’t recommend the game on mobile.

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2024-06-19*

Polimines 2 will take you 20+ hours to complete unless you are a real wiz. Excellent puzzler on the go. The closest game I've played to the legendary Tametsi.

### 2/5 — Kills my battery more than most other games.

*2024-05-24*

I was having fun. Trying not to make mistakes at all. Don’t like that there’s only 2 zoom levels. Puzzle 2-17 has a mistake. The 11th column is marked with “2 2” at the top, but it should be “2 1 1”. I failed this puzzle because of the error. The game will get covered by large red rectangle sometimes when you resume a game, forcing you to kill it. Why does this game drain my battery more than most of my other games? Please work on some optimization. There’s nothing going on that would cause the drain. After saying all of this, I’m still having fun with it. The puzzles were all solvable so far (except 2-17) by deduction.  If they fix these issues, I’ll increase my rating.

**Developer response:** We're sorry your perfect streak was broken by bugs. While there are undoubtedly some vexing bugs that can occur during the play of an individual puzzle, which give you incorrect feedback as you go, the solution for 2-17 is definitely in accord with "2 2" in the 11th column at the top. Since the problems in feedback are infrequent, you may be able to retry the level and get credit for a clean completion.  (If you search for "POLIMINES 2 Levels 1 to 22 (Minimal Puzzle Game)" and skip to 1:11:50 you can confirm the solution).

As for the battery drain, we're at the mercy of the game engine which is hopelessly inefficient. With your support, we're one step closer to getting picked up by the NYT or something and finding a budget for a slimmer complete do-over of the game!

### 2/5 — Phone gets really hot!

*2024-05-13*

Game graphics are quite simple so I don’t know why it needs to drive the phone as hard as it does. Seems unnecessary
