It's a pretty basic remake of the classic Minesweeper, but in 4 dimensions
Pros:
- it's 4D
- the "donut" field mode
- the "delta" mode for the numbers lets you exclude some trivial calcualtions
So-so:
- I recall a few similar games from the 2000s (e.g. Minefield 6D) which had all this stuff and even more features, e.g. 3D, and 5D+ fields. I still like that there is a game onIt's a pretty basic remake of the classic Minesweeper, but in 4 dimensions

I still like that there is a game on Steam about 4D, finally (I can't wait until Miegacure comes out btw). Though this game, since it's on Steam, should have at least to be better than free old apps out there..
Cons:
- frequent crashes in the recent update (after you start new game and click on cell (0, 0, 0, 0) it seems to always crash
- dull look, and all those "0" tiles which create clutter. Even the original Microsoft's game probably looked better than this one
- I'm pretty sure that using "Minesweeper" in the title is not allowed since the name is Microsoft's trademark. Even on Linux this game was called "Mines" to avoid a lawsuit from M$
- left+right click should open all tiles around the clicked one, if the number of flagged tiles around it is the same as the number on the tile - that's how the original Minesweeper worked
Overall: finally something 4D on Steam, but needs work. So far it looks like a shool/student assignment, not ready for a commercial release both in presentation and in feature set.… Expand
