Overall well-executed classic casual title – Minesweeper Go - Retro Classic Review

Love having both the vintage and modern themes. Worth the 99c to ditch the lengthy ads on this one. Nice soundtrack, overall a stylish, intuitive UX. Suggestions: 1. Classic MS doesn’t require tapping out all non-mine tiles, i.e., once all mines are correctly flagged the game ends. Please fix it so users don’t have to hunt down to the last non-mine tile to tap them all out, it’s annoying, and now I can see the logic behind the original MS not requiring that. 2. Would like the option to turn off just the mine explosion and leave the other SFX. 3. Love night mode! Great font choice with Avenir - I use it a lot, great font. One tweak to aid visibility: lighten up the tile borders a bit to make them more easily distinguishable to the eyes. 4. Biggest pet peeve: the flashing flag button. It’s novel, but unhelpful. Has caused several errors or second-guessing whether the button’s active or not. At least add the option to make it a solidly lit button. I’d also love for the button be larger and stand out from the menu row - maybe even add the option to place it in any corner, so lefties/righties can choose? That would be perfect. As of this version it’s honestly just poorly designed. At the very least get rid of the novel flashing effect - it’s a distraction that slows down game play. Overall, fantastic design - great work! Makes me want to check whether you’ve also done Reversi and some other classics.
