    The gameplay is criticized for being slow, clunky, and filled with distractions, including intrusive advertisements and poorly executed multiplayer elements that detract from the core experience. Players find the mechanics frustrating, particularly due to a lack of penalties for mistakes and overall poor design choices that fail to honor the original minesweeper concept.

    • “Gameplay feels slow and clunky; you basically have to wait a second or so before you can bulk open cells around the flag.”
    • “Unfortunately, it fails to live up to its potential with poor design choices, intrusive gameplay elements, and a lack of features.”
    • “The gameplay experience is marred by constant distractions and a poorly executed multiplayer component that adds no value to the original minesweeper concept.”
  • monetization4 mentions

    The monetization strategy of the game is heavily criticized for its intrusive ads and aggressive monetization tactics, resembling a low-quality free mobile game. Players report that the presence of persistent advertisements and disruptive in-game purchases detracts significantly from the overall experience, leading to perceptions of a cash grab.

    • “Plays like a cheaply made free mobile game, including ads and heavy monetization, while potentially trying to spy or sell data.”
    • “Combined with being incredibly zoomed in and a complete lack of options other than sound, this feels like a quick cash grab scam.”
    • “While the onscreen chat can be turned off, the intrusive advertisements from players who have purchased DLCs remain an unavoidable and persistent disruption within the gameplay area.”

    • “Optimization seems to be an afterthought, as the game frequently stutters even on high-end hardware.”
  • music1 mentions

    Players find the music aspect of the game lacking due to the inability to independently adjust sound volume and music levels, which limits customization options to simple toggle settings.

    • “The soundtrack feels repetitive and lacks variety, making it hard to stay engaged during gameplay.”
    • “The music doesn't match the game's tone, often feeling out of place and detracting from the overall experience.”
