Minesweeper Deluxe 4+

I have played this game for many years and enjoyed it immensely. When I converted to an iMac, I was not expecting what happened. When I plaiy the game, at least 50% of the time, probably more, l lose even though I took the correct action. I will secondary click a corner that is absolutely a mined square and the game will say I clicked. I have tried everything. I right click only by pressing on the edge of the mouse and it still malfunctions. I can’t count the number of times I’ve given up in frustration. As I said, I’ve played the PC version ever since it came out, so it is NOT user error. ARRGH!

I like this game. It appears to be an almost identical rendition of the original. It may be just me, but I really think the game needs a mode that will let you flag mines without having to do the two-finger click on the mouse-less laptop. I can hardly make it through an expert game without inadvertantly misclicking and triggering a mine that I was trying to flag. That’s annoying. Maybe you could just add a check or button that would let us toggle the mode and then switch back and forth between click and flag mode while using the single click. Just a thought.
The game is fun though. I just need to get better at my double-click.

I love this game, and have been playing it happily for years. But last week, after I installed the most recent Mac OS update, Big Sur 11.0.1, the game no longer works. Not at any level. I get a partial black window with a partial game window that won't accept any entry. I hope an update will be available soon to I can start playing my favorite game again.
