This is absolutely a minesweeper game, no question.  but it's held back strongly by a lack of a proper interactive tutorial. if you had started with a single match 3 goal and only 3 mines total, for instance, we could have come to understand how it works intuitively.  And the next step probably would be 6 mines match 4? And after that, maybe the first level you have currently. 

I started to get the basic idea of what was going on after 5+ minutes of messing with it, but that's too much. I do hope you give it another try, I love the mashup of different genres here. 

aint no way the number represent the mines in 3x3 space of it. maybe the it exclude the mine in that space itself, so its 8 space around it instead of 3x3. and overall lack of tutorial or explanation really hurts

An unexpected combination, it took me a while to figure out the mechanics.

I don't understand what I am supposed to be doing. Once I accidentally cleared a mine but I'm not sure how. What do the numbers mean?
