Mineswifter (Minesweeper) App Reviews

absolutely love this app. the daily challenges are fun and the user experience is wonderful. the themes are all cute, but i do wish there was a dark mode option for those bedtime procrastination games. otherwise phenomenal

In a sea of dated Minesweeper apps, this modern take achieves perfection.

Great game and I play it all of the time. It’s worth the little bit the money the developer asks for it. Well thought out. Your first click is NEVER a mine and is ALWAYS playable! Love the daily challenges and now crave just the most difficult ones because I’ve played so (too) much :-). It’s addictive in an innocent way because it is a challenge. If you play without using flags you will still have to guess unless you can keep a count in your head, which I can not unfortunately but after a while

I downloaded a different free version and immediately got inundated with pop ups, ads and banners. Love this one…all minesweeping and no clearing banners and ads getting in the way of the game

Great game. One suggestion: It would be better if the game allowed you to scroll a little more towards the edges. It is hard to get a tap on the edge squares to register.

The daily challenges take stats on your first try clearing the board, so there is no resetting until completing your first try on the challenges. Anything else lets you reset any time. (The app lets you undo mistakes and keep going.) The app has a setting where I can change how long I press-and-hold tiles to mark them. This effectively eliminates my issues with another minesweeper app I was using.

This app is excellent! The UI is minimalist and modern. I love that every game is solvable without having to guess and the daily challenges add a bit of fun variety to the classic game.

Great app. My only gripe is it does not have a custom difficulty setting.

When you *know* there’s a solution, you are forced to learn patterns you may have missed in normal minesweeper. Thus this makes you better at the game! There is a whole class of probability problems which are necessarily excluded from this game, but that’s okay.

Flag toggle box needs to be bigger. Constantly misclicking mines thinking I’ve toggled the flag button.

Classic game. Very addictive. But the controls are finicky sometimes. It’s very frustrating to lose a string of perfect games because the app didn’t decides the long-touch you did to flag a tile was actually a short tap instead. Kaboom. Except my finger is usually still right where I put it. Oh well. Fun game nevertheless. But it would be nice if it only blew me up when I deserved it.

This take on the old mine game actually improves on the original. While most of these games in the App Store are a lazy rip-off with no functionality and worse game mechanics than the original, the developer of this gem actually put some thought into it. I sense they must be a fan of the game :-) Simple yet powerful, I highly recommend Mineswifter.

I love this app and it makes minesweeper so much more fun. But could you please please please show us the time average only for perfect games when we get one for the daily game. If I get a perfect game in seven minutes and the average is four minutes it takes away some of my satisfaction from getting the perfect game because it makes me feel slow even though I don’t know how long those people would have taken if it was only perfect games.

Clean, simple and integrates just the right amount of gamification. Great app!

Being able to know the game won’t end in a stupid 50/50 is so relieving. I wish the game board had some padding around the outside though as sometimes I have difficulty clicking on the squares at the edge of the board.

Get rid of new game confirmation! Otherwise an excellent game, could be 5stars were it not for the double click process to start a new game..

Love the no guessing mode, and very well designed. Looks great, colors are all distinguishable, eveything you'd expect.

But some maps are frustrating, there will be some that have mines that are surrounded by mines that have no number attacked to them

Good UI, very responsive, daily maps are fun. Just wish it had a customizable board.
