Campo Minado Clássico: Retr‪ô‬ +4

Hands down the best minesweeper I’ve ever played on mobile. For starters, while the game had ads, its a one-time payment of $1.99 to remove them. Most other mobile games require a weekly paying subscription to remove ads, however this one is a simple one-time payment, which is all that is necessary in mobile gaming in my opinion. Not only that, but this game allows you to customize pretty much everything, from animations playing to holding to place down bombs, it’s incredible. The freedom this game allows in it’s settings menu is something most other games lack, and its amazing. Not only that, but the game has Guess-Free mode, meaning it can generate boards that are simply based off of skill, and not literal RNG (Random Number Generator). A few other features include custom board sizes, with the freedom of choosing row count, column count, and even mine count. There’s also themes that you can purchase with in-game currency, being coins, and even a feature that allows you to double coins for a one-time payment of $1.99. There’s a statistics viewer, displaying your statistics for all difficulties and overall, including a win-loss ratio, which I think is pretty interesting. All in all, this game does everything right, and you bet I’ll be paying that two bucks just to remove ads, because it’s totally worth it.

Seriously for Real this is the best minesweeper app. Theres always debate about which controls are best, which gui options, themes, and bells and whistles. Traditional players may yell “i just want NORMAL minesweeper, heck all these extra things >:(“ guess what. You have the option to TURN ALMOST ANY OPTION OFF. This is the Pique minesweeper experience with custom boards, traditional boards, retrying level, turning off retrying levels, cool themes, classic theme, hold to flag, quick flagging, hints, auto zoom, no zoom, reset zoom, starting the game blank, starting the game with a path and so so so much more. If for a SECOND you have a complaint about a feature, just check the settings and you can change it. The ads are not intrusive, only between games. (I dont like that there is an ad DIRECTLY after the win, i wanna celebrate for a second, maybe move it to the start of the game please devs?) If they are annoying you or you just want to support the wonderful devs, removing ads is only 2$ and is the only paid feature in the game (except coins but those are just for themes and you can earn that yourself). This is the BEST, most comprehensive, most classic, and most new minesweeper experience. Do not waste your time with any other minesweeper iphone copies.

I was looking for a Minesweeper app that would offer a clean interface, a quick start up, and intuitive controls (eg. responsive flagging/quick-flagging modes), and some kind of display customization, like a dark mode.

I downloaded this thinking it might be bloated with unnecessary features but I was so, SO wrong.

It has a beautiful UI, extreme customization (found the dark mode variant—one of three—that I preferred), and all kinds of control and layout customizations.

The best parts are the daily challenges. They’re so easy to jump into; I’ve gone back almost two year’s worth snagging every gold badge that I can.

The no-guess feature is also a godsend.

The only points of criticism I can think of are:

1) cracked leaderboards. I can’t rank on them because everyone’s times are 0.00s.

2) themes need the option to enable/disable the color-coding on numerals. Half of the themes have the traditional coloring (eg. blue for 1, green for 2, etc), but the other half feature a single coloring for all numbers. And I get it… the coloring is all an aesthetic, and they’re matched really well for cutesy designs, but there are some themes that I love and simply can’t use because you lose a huge, fundamental ability to scan the board by color.

All in, a legitimate 9.5/10.
