Very cool way to combine a minesweeper style mechanic with the theme of decay. It took me a sec to understand what exactly the numbers were telling me, but once I figured it out, I enjoyed it a lot! Well done! Thanks for making and sharing it!

Developer

Thank you for the kind words! The submitted version don't have as much guidance for the player as I hoped but I'm glad you could figure it out!

Loved the computer - it was a good way of doing a tutorial without it feeling like a tutorial. It felt like a complete game, with the clear objectives and sharp art style. Really nice job!

Developer

I forget how minesweeper works, and always lose badly at it. The overall ambience is nice and fitting.

Super cool game, I love minesweeper and it was cool to see a new take on that kind of game. The different types of items to find the DNA strands were super cool and added some nice variety to the game. Also the art style is so charming, the game looks great. Awesome work!

Developer
