Minesweeper Twist 4+

Only request would be to be able to scroll with one finger.

concept is great, and it’s a very fun twist on the traditional minesweeper formula. could be improved with a few additional features - bigger zoom (the squares are too small to comfortably interact with on the expert difficulty), one-finger scrolling, maybe a dark mode that can make the game itself darker instead of just the background? 🙂

I stumbled upon this game while searching for Minesweeper variants, and it was exactly what I was hoping for. If you’re having trouble with the irregular grid, make sure you watch the tutorial (there’s a button for it in the menu). Here are some of my notes about the app:

There’s a custom difficulty mode where you can choose your own grid size and mine spawn rate. You can swap between long press for flags and tap for uncovering, and tap for flags and long press for uncovering (as well as customize the duration you have to hold down for the long press). You can enable a question mark feature in the settings where you can tap or long press over a flag to replace it with a “?”. So far, I’ve not gotten any random ads despite having played for hours, which has been a breathe of fresh air.

The app seems to work pretty well - the only issue I’ve come across is with the “undo” feature (which you can enable in settings). You have to watch an ad to use it, but they take forever to load so I just give up. I also wish that you could scroll with just one finger instead of two, and that you could enable a flagging mode so you don’t have to worry as much about accidentally uncovering a mine you meant to flag. However, I’m still giving it 5 stars because of how much I’ve been enjoying it. It’s clear that there was a lot of love and care put into this app, which is why I’m leaving this review (I have only left a few app reviews throughout my entire life). I’m gonna get the paid version soon for the sole purpose of showing appreciate for the developers. If you’re bored of regular minesweeper, get this app! :)
