Terrible

FieroRed

As you play this game, it is next to impossible to solve. Example: The game will glitch and show that there are two mines adjacent to a block. When you click to remove the obvious non-mined block, you lose and the game will show that there were actually more mines than the clue was showing.


XD AWESOME

Well its a very good game you should get it the only bad thing is the instructions arent very clear.


Keep it stationary!

Please, fix this new update so that the board doesn't hop around every time I clear a square. This has caused me on many occasions to accidentally hit a mine because the board moved right underneath me.


Don't like the auto-glide

MIKcruz

When you touch a far end of the screen it auto adjust, making it difficult to hit the space you want with speed.


Absolutely hate the new update

Emerler1

I used to absolutely love this app, but have not been very since the new update. It is so difficult to play without accidentally tapping on a bomb. If SkyPaw does not fix this soon, I'll be looking for a new minesweeper app. Please add the option of keeping the board stationary when I'm playing. In addition, in the mode where you only mark bombs. Please bring back the functionality that allows me to double tap numbered squares that have all the bombs around them marked and clear the board that way.


Screen shakes & moves

I prefer the previous version. In a matter of a few touches, I've tapped on a bomb because the screen moved. It's not the square I wart to tap on. I've played this enough to know which square to tap on. I've tried tapping slower & screen still moves unexpectedly. I also prefer the old version where we could play while seeing the whole screen. Not having a visual nor access to play the entire box feels like a forced play. I'm not sure where my starting point is when I press reset for a new game, besides the shaky screen. Overall, I don't like the new version.


Just hold still!

GB.Meyer

I have to agree with the other reviews here... it was better for me before the auto-centering feature was added. The new look is nice. Maybe we could have the option to turn off the auto movement. Overall, the apps by this dev are innovative and good looking, but this latest is just a little over the top for me. Update 2 Aug 2013: The fix for the auto-centering issue has returned this to being my favorite game! Thanks guys! Good job!


Was Good Before Update

Smerfs

This used to be a very good and easy way to play before the update. The auto centering and new graphics are all just unnecessary.


Almost…

dannerville

On an iPhone 4s, my finger may be too large. Often rather than set a flag, the result is the selection of a square & a mine explodes. This does not happen with other apps!


Fundamental issue

Vipsé

I think this version of minesweeper has a programming issue that ruins the game. Often times I will lose a game when I hit a box that shouldn't have a mine in it, and it does. For example, I will have figured out that a mine is on the board, flag it, and it's touching a "1" - this means it's safe to reveal the other boxes touching that 1. Upon revealing them, I find that there is more than one mine touching that #1 box.
