Take the classic minesweeper game into the 21st century.
From the developer: "Clear the mines with special effects & animation. With all the fun of the classic Minesweeper, this game is a total rework of the graphics from the ground up. Gone are the dull gray graphics... this dressed up version looks a LOT better. Just be careful, you might eat up more time than you ever thought possible. The best part is ... you get it all for free!"
Loads a lot of malwares/freewares
Won't uninstall at all
Summary
No not install it. Instead use the default game available in Win XP/Vista/7. This one installs a lot of unwanted things which then can't be uninstalled off your machine. I am struggling since one hour to remove this off my machine. Be vigilant.
It's minesweper but not a good one

Pros
Its minesweeper
Cons
Crashes all the time
Constant ads for other programs
Hijacks a web page when you quit or uninstall (this makes me very angry)
The mine map sits inside another container making the size on screen bigger than it needs to be.
Summary
Don't bother with this one. I only tried it because my PC didn't have the original from MS. Constant crashing, ads, browser hijacks make this a poor poor clone.
Customizable - sorta

Pros
I like being able to change the size of the puzzle and the density of the mines.
Cons
No other options (i.e., change color, change character [that lady gets old quick]). How about a version where you're chasing zombies or aliens instead of mines... yes I know then it wouldn't be "minesweeper." But I still like the idea.
Summary
It was easy to download & start up. They need to get rid of the lady who smiles or frowns (I liked the old smiley face) or give options for that character. Otherwise, no problems here.
not impressed

Pros
Cons
Often I have to click multiple times before it registers. It seems to need an alignment for the click location vs. the box outline.
Summary
It's cool, but when you click on the mines it doesn't always click...

Pros
I like the new sounds, they are kind of entertaining...I like how it explodes when you open a bunch of spaces...
Cons
When I click on the mines sometimes they do not open up right away...so I have to click on them multiple times...that ruins my time...
Summary
Good stuff
Pros
Cons
Summary
Fine program. Its basically just the same old same with some new graphics and sounds, but my girlfriend is addicted to it, so it must have something.
What's the point?

Pros
Cons
Summary
It's Minesweeper. Everyone's already GOT Minesweeper, and it's already free. I fail to see the point of this download, since it doesn't contain any new features.
