Bam!
Very nice. I liked the incorporation of other board games. Difficulty curve was perfect. I don't have much more to say. Maybe add a GO piece where it flips from black to white depending on the number thats under it?

- Your GDD is short and to the point, which for such a simple premise isn't bad but would have benefited from a section dedicated to laying out the gameplay elements a little more. The actual game itself was a really fun play the way you integrated mechanics to the level select is a clever touch. While the difficulty felt well balanced, I did occasionally solve a level without exactly understanding how. Not sure if my Minesweeper habits just kicked in or if you might be able to add clearer "tutorial" type levels? I think if you cleaned up/developed the art a little more you already have a real special game!
