Minesweeper! App Reviews

Not worth 99 cents

Downloaded the paid version. All you get is beginners level. Did not respond to left or right clicks. Don’t buy. This is a 2012 version and probably was never made for OS X.

Overall, pretty good.

The mechanics and everything work well. My only complaint is that there is a delay in between clicking and the response, which can really add up if youre going for speed; It has cost me a game or two because Ill move the mouse before the response and I end up clicking a bomb square instead of the one I wanted.

Double Click

Sometimes when i attempt to flag the grid (two finger click) it does a normal click instead...ending my game for me. I love minesweeper so please fix this!

Much too much lag

This minesweeper is very slow to respond. It stinks compared to Microsoft minesweeper. Theres so much lag in the clicking that the game cant be played fast. Very frustrating. I would not recommend this. Still looking for a decent minesweeper for mac.

Excellent

I really enjoy playing this version. It took a few tries to figure out what keys to press to insert flags, but once I did, it was great fun!!

Works!

Does the job in a nice interface. One feature Id like to see added is being able to have lives. I hate when I have to guess a mine on the last move and I pick the wrong one.

Only for 10.7

So the update is for 10.7 only!! Not cool.

Need Lion to Run

What the hell, I need lion to run minesweeper! Its not even that good of a minesweeper game. The graphics are basic and it doesnt even have sound, why does it need lion?

Love it

So much time spent mine sweeping! Having troble beating the hard level but it just makes it that much more awesome!

NOOOOOOO!!!!

THE UPDATE ERASED MY RECORDS!!!! WHY

Does what you want and a bit more

Very nice looking, customizeable, and fast. And most importantly, it works. Perfect for killing 5 minutes, and as long as I keep telling myself that its a brain game, and good for me, I dont have to feel guilty about playing.

Perfect Minesweeper

Looks good and plays well. The inspector window is a cool feature that shows all the statistics for your game. The new replay function is what Ive always wanted! I wish the scoreboard was a little more careful with the reset button. There is no confirmation for it and it is right next to the close button, so Ive accidentally clicked it before, erasing all my scores. Also unhappy with the erasing of the scores with the update! All in all, this is the best minesweeper you will ever find.

Great App!

The cleanest, most user-friendly minesweeper app available. Definitely worth the price.

Guesswork required

It is impossible to play the game on expert mode and win without completely guessing several locations. Its infuriating, really.

I love minesweeper, this is lacking one thing...

Its a pretty good version of the game, but it is lacking a pause function… And I am missing it! If something comes up that needs my attention I hate just letting my time keep going. Please add a pause!

Rating responding to pop-up solicitation

This app periodically has a pop-up soliciting users to review it in the App Store. I am responding to that spam. I find fhis kind of pop-up revolting. As a matter of policy, any program that uses pop-ups this way to slolicit reviews will get one -- with a one-star rating. This is a decent app, but spamming your customers is unacceptable.

Everything I wanted

The game is very simple and easy to use. Never gets old

Not very pretty

If you really just want to play minesweeper, this gets the job done. Its just not very pretty about it. Personally, I prefer feeling like Im clicking a button. The unclicked spaces dont look like buttons; more like a blue checkered tablecloth.

Is there a flaw in computer or game?

Too often when I am right clicking to place a flag it blows up the mine. Very frustrating especially since I agree it is not pretty and too frequently requires simple guessing when you have worked through most of the grid. Would also like the pause function suggested by one player.

Great, with one suggestion.

I love this app, its more gorgeous than the original game. I would, however, like it if the squares were more distinguishable from one another. All of them kind of blend together and theyre rather hard to see. It looks more like a solid color.
