"looks awesome, even to a person who's already played Minesweeper for hundreds of hours. That’s precisely the same old good game, but with the HD graphics and spherical (aka planet-like) gameplay field. Find mines, flag them, take a guess and die horribly. Fun, fun time."
--AppSale Review
"A brilliant take on an old classic... A brilliant challenge, but easy to get into if you’re waiting for the train or just have some minutes to kill....the game provides a challenge, and is very entertaining. It’s also great to see such a classic game being taken to new levels!"

Great variation

Love the game, except there is one maddening issue- it is way too easy to accidentally double tap a space. There's no buzz kill quite like spending 40 minutes on a giant planet and then when one is almost done accidentally double tapping a space that YOU KNOW is a mine. Arrgh! Would therefore like an option to be able to turn off double tapping, and always have to use the little menu that pops up most times. Safe mode, perhaps? Also, suggestion- animate the action when you hit a mine. Thinking along the lines of the planetary explosion in Star Wars. More fun than just going to a grey screen. Love the way the open spaces animate when you hit them!
Has auto-destruct feature

Update: soon after posting this there was an app update and there is now an option to mute music. I played several games and didn't encounter the 'auto-destruct' bug from before. Still possible to accidentally double tap a mine & kill the game, but big improvement from before. Updated my rating to 5 stars. Good graphics & cool 3-D concept. However like others have said it will uncover mines you didn't select & end the game. A couple of times it was in "auto-clear" mode & uncovered a mine... I wasn't even touching the screen! 2 stars because of that frustrating thing, otherwise 4 stars. 5 if I had option to mute music.
Planet blows up

I have big fingers. There are times where it will open the wrong place. This causes me to loose a game from time to time. Being able to turn off the music is great. I highly recommend this game.
Fat finger

I love the game BUT I do mistakenly hit two by mistake and lose the game. Perhaps if everything was slightly larger that wouldnt happen SO often...
Minesweeper with a twist
