Minesweeper Classic 2 Wiki

This game is pretty good, the amount of gray it has on the screen really tickles my pickle if you know what I mean. My only complaint is the fact that President Theodore Roosevelt would’ve not enjoyed it because it has WAY to much melon not enough water. The communist regime would enjoy it however because it has the numbers and the blocks and that really butters their toast.

The new app doesn’t let me type my name and dates for my high score. It doesn’t even keep my high scores. Liked it better when I first bought it. Every time it updates it erases my scores and gets worse It’s better at keeping my scores now but not logging my total games played in the right places. I’m afraid my app will update and erase my awesome high scores

I downloaded this game because it reminded me of the old PC game from my childhood. Since I have an iPhone, I was glad to know that they had a version available in the iTunes Store. The app works without any issues, and it is a good time killer when you have some free time. Give it a shot for those slow days.

I searched for this classic in a moment of nostalgia, and tried a few versions. This one is the best. It is easier to see when a flag is thrown down behind your finger, and it is just more responsive overall. This little game is every bit as addictive as I remember. Good work, developers!

While holding down for a flag sometimes it will instead register it as a selection and cause the game to think you are selecting a mine instead of laying a flag and thus failing the game. It’s happening so often that it’s difficult to play.

I downloaded another minesweeper app first and it had SO many ads that I had to look for a better app and this is what I got. It’s the same game. It’s just as easy to play. But it has a fraction of the ads!

It doesn’t work Every time I go over the the “stats” tab and press “reset all stats”, it registers that I tapped it by changing the color of the text, but it actually doesn’t reset anything

...It can be annoying getting started. Blind luck on getting to a point where you can actually start. Many times it can take four to five tries which is needlessly frustrating.

The gameplay is solid, you can zoom into and out of the puzzles, so far I’ve not had any problems with stats either! And for most of the puzzles I’ve not had problems, hence the 4 stars. There are only two outstanding issues with this game, the first is quite general: the beginning of a puzzle is a complete shot in the dark. Many have brought this up before, there isn’t enough information if, say, only one square is unveiled, to know where you can click, so you just have to be lucky for the next click. I’d say an easy way around this is to ensure that you can work through the whole puzzle opening from a corner, and ensuring there isn’t ever a mine in that corner. In this way we won’t lose games just because we didn’t click correctly, and this certainly won’t make the play easier considering how many untapped squares are left! The second issue is that sometimes the numbers are incorrect, I’ve had a case where I lost a puzzle bc I unveiled a square that was adjacent to a “1” square that already had a guaranteed mine next to it. Then when the mines were unveiled there were two around the square that said “1”! Had the square said “2” I obviously wouldn’t have so nonchalantly unveiled the other square! But thanks for creating the app, other than the above it’s great.

I don’t know what improvements and bug fixes were supposedly included with the last update, but you really screwed up the app’s responsiveness. The touch sensitivity is all squirrelly and glitchy now, with the board moving all over the place at the slightest touch—I use it zoomed in because it’s hard to accurately tap squares on a big difficult board—which causes inadvertent taps to adjacent squares when trying to flag a mine square, and failure to clear squares when tapping. I don’t even want to play this game anymore because the screen is so wonky and aggravating. Hate it so much. Please fix this issue, or I’ll just go find a new minesweeper app from another developer. 😠

I downloaded this version of the game to my new iPhone to replace a favorite one that is no longer available. For the opening move it often uncovers only one tile and leaves no hint of where to start. Then at the end it gives a couple of tiles that require a guess for which one has the flag with no hint again. My old version never left the player guessing but always had a direction to move even if it was not obvious.

I paid the $0.99 to remove ads, which it did, but the unlock button to remove ads is still present and functional. Also, the stats for the Difficult setting aren't tracking properly. It lists my first losing streak, and the first game I won. But it never kept track of the games played, which still says zero. I've won Difficult 4 times now, but it still only lists the first win, and original losing streak. I'm a stats guy, I like to keep track of these types of pointless things, so that's very frustrating for me. I've emailed the support team, but haven't heard back, which is also frustrating. I know you're busy, but at least an automated email acknowledging my issue and a time frame for response would be cool.

I’ve had this on my iPad for a few years. According to the new Privacy info in iOS 14, this app is tracking its users. I can see collecting ANONYMOUS usage data to see how the app is being used, but I don’t see any reason why that needs to be tied to my identity, or why games should be trying to track people in the first place, so ... deleted. Which is too bad, it’s a cute little game, a good way to pass a few minutes when I’m sitting in a waiting room or whatever. If a future version is released which doesn’t tie any information to my identity, I’ll install it again.

It seems ridiculous that I am able to make the squares twice as big on my iPhone 10 max than I can on my iPad mini 4. You’d think it would be the exact opposite. It makes playing the game on anything but a larger iPhone absolutely worthless. I love this game on my iPhone but have removed it from my iPad mini because the buttons are simply way to small to press accurately. The iPad mini should be the optimum sized device for this game as the larger iPads are too big and clumsy for this game. Currently, the larger iPhones are by far the best for playing this game but that would change if they incorporate the ability to make the squares larger on the iPads, especially the mini which would become the best machine for this game. Very disappointing game play on the iPad mini.
