Minesweeper

I enjoyed this, and think it needs to be rated more highly, but there are a few critical features missing. 8s should, as previously suggested, automatically reveal their adjacent tiles, as it does in minesweeper.

More importantly, however, there needs to be a ticking sound when you're running out of time, so that the player is aware they need to close the gap before being hit upside the head with a game over.

Lastly, as the game progressed, I was experiencing a bit of slowdown, and it was like my cursor was on ice, but I don't see any other mention of that in the reviews thus far, so it might be on my side for some reason.

Great minesweeper clone, I hope you improve it even more!

I dunno about this.

It seems like it lacks a crucial feature: Most of the time playing this game is spent unchecking the squares around the 8-diamonds, only to uncover more 8-diamonds. The game even states that you can safely uncheck all squares around the 8's without a fear of losing a life.

If I uncover the 8-diamonds all the time, why couldn't the game check the squares around it for me? Checking those damn squares becomes nothing but a chore, and the game loses its appeal.

But it was a fun game for a while. Make a new version with prettier diamonds, some nice backgrounds while you play, a more comprehensive interactive tutorial and the feature I mentioned added in.

Well ...

Yeah, Minesweeper, ...
just the other way around --> makes it less fun to play

lame

mostly a minesweeper copy.

It's a good game to kill time with and exercise your brain a tad. It's just like Mine Sweep, but with diamonds. The only thing I would recommend is an improvement on the graphics.
