The gameplay is criticized for its lack of replayability and depth, offering minimal content and no engaging mechanics beyond a simplistic minesweeper format. Players find it too easy and lacking in any compelling story or endgame features, making it feel less valuable even at a low price point.
“The actual gameplay is incredibly easy, if you're at least familiar with how to play Minesweeper.”
“There is no replayability in this game as there are no endgame mechanics, no map metrics to try to beat, and no engrossing story to return to.”
“Even its cheap price doesn't justify how little this game offers; I can honestly say I've played 100% free games with more content and gameplay time than this.”
“They don't try to innovate with the mechanics of Minesweeper; you play one grid and clear a CG.”
