ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Minesweeper Classic holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Minesweeper Classic has 3.1K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 39% of Minesweeper Classic's written reviews are positive against 75% of Water Ring Toss's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Minesweeper Classic ships an update every 3 months, Water Ring Toss every 5 months. Both last shipped on October 22, 2026.
