Its ok but needs the double click.

I like the visual overall of the original minesweeper concept and you've done a bang-up job with the presentation. However, there are a few notable flaws in your design.

For one, if you've played the original game, you'll know that on about 95% of possible scenarios, the very first click always opens up a wide space for the player; I believe this happens because the bombs and layout are generated after this click, always providing ample room to explore. This doesn't seem to be the case in your game, and it results in a lot of early restarts.

The other, far more prominent, flaw is, ironically, the new isometric perspective. It is very evident that you created the game in this Point-of-View is that it would stand out more and look more visually appealing than its predecessor; however, this perspective makes it VERY difficult to accurately see which squares and numbers are adjacent to each other. This places an enormous amount of strain on the eyes when one is actively tiring to play and beat the game and it was so aggravating that I had to stop during the second level.

It's a shame too, as really was enjoying the amazing polish on both the visuals and music. Here's to making your next game, a bigger and better one!
