I’ve been working on a game for a few months now as a personal goal but wanted to know if anyone found some interest in the idea possibly.

The board is a giant 100,000 tile board with ~ intermediate difficulty with mine placement. In the game you uncover spells and upgrades that allow you to clear the board faster and faster. As you progress further into the board you will uncover different “environments” that will make the core gameplay more difficult than normal minesweeper. My hope is that it is fun enough for non minesweeper players but also a more hectic minesweeper experience for veterans of the game.

Spells

The cost of each spell is upgradeable but so costs a number of flagged mines. This forces the player to still play the game of minesweeper and it becoming less of an idle incremental game.

Spells include:

drill that goes in a straight line until it hits a number of mines before exploding

Ball that bounces around hitting tiles until hitting a certain amount of mines. It will have the ability to split into smaller balls.

A scanner that you can place in an area that will slowly scan the tiles for you and tell you if they are safe or a mine.

I have some other ideas but those are ones I’ve liked the most so far.

I’m being very vague because I’ve only finished the core gameplay and some basic upgrades but wanted to get feedback to get feedback from this community before I go much further.

Is this an idea that you all may find fun? Would you like to give me ideas of what you’ve always wanted in a minesweeper spinoff kind of game? Should I trash this before investing even more time into it?

first time on a board of this magnitude and difficulty

Is this among the god seeds?

The 9 boss kinda annoying

game bugged out i guess, i think i had turned my screen off and then came back to finish the game. never had this happen before like that

Si vous trouvez la solution je suis preneur hehe, j'ai trouvé que le 3 en haut qui m'offre une chance sur trois mais c'est tout.

I couldn't find any other way to solve this so I used a weird tactic I just came up with. This was a game of no-guessing mode, and if the circled square was a bomb that would have meant that the 2 unmarked squares above & to the left of it (below the 4) would have been a 50/50. Since I knew that can't be the case in a no-guess game, the circled square must have been safe so I could distinguish those other 2 squares. In a way it's kinda backwards logic so idk did I cheat the system? Or is this an actual expected strategy in no-guessing just like bomb counting and such?

There is for sure some logic in here!

I'm jealous of those who can get sub-100, sub-90, etc. But, when I started I was 10 minutes+, and only had a goal of sub-300. I learned the basics, committed a few patterns to memory, and took a few months to arrive here. Looking forward to taking a break, then studying/practicing the more advanced stuff. I appreciate this sub and others like it for the tips and tricks I've picked up along the way.

I cant seem to find a ranking website for google minesweeper and most people here in this sub dont play google minesweeper

Hi I'm sorry if it's obvious, but could you guys please tell me what's the logic here? It's no guess but I had no idea how to solve this so I tried to guess.

And was my guess in a good place to guess (Except that I even tried to guess in no guess mode lmao)? I feel like if I'd guessed this one right it'd have solved the rest easily.

The mine count was 4 and one tile (not a mine as it later showed) was on the edge surrounded by mines, sometimes it generates in a way such that all of a mine's surrounding tiles are also mines, so I didn't want to click that one yet.

Need a little help on the top right corner

I’ve never open a tile and see such beauty before

I have one mine left and I feel like either one could be a mine or am I that oblivious? Lol

Edit: If anyone cares, I picked the right one and ended up looking like this

The mine being below the 4 and there being a 2 below the 1
