ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

minesweeper holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 2.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Minesweeper· has 22 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 36% of Minesweeper·'s written reviews are positive against 0% of minesweeper's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Minesweeper· ships an update every 4 months, minesweeper every 16 months. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
