Nice spin on the minesweeper idea. I liked the vibe created by using a restricted colour palette with the art. 
It's a bit hard to figure out what's going on without looking through the hints but its a nice gameplay loop when you understand how to play.

Really neat game! I liked trying to deduce things before trying to use the hints and very nice tile flipping animations!

Love the concept with a well thought out loop. A bit short if you understand the mechanic and the hints system is a nice addition to make sure every player understands the game. Great game!

Great concept. I did use the hints to understand the rules, think that they should be given initially. Really nice puzzle logic. Can definitely see how it could be expanded into a fun full game.

Really like the idea of it, but I can see for a lot of players that not using hints to first understand the rules could make it frustrating, but really would love to see a fleshed out version. I think this is the sort of game that would work as a mobile game that someone could pick up and play whenever they feel bored when traveling.

Really cool concept and glad I tried it.

I really couldn't stop playing, I was even creating my own storylines in the playthrough. Peak experience!

I think the concept for this game flew over my head. I couldn't quite understand what I was doing, I eventually got an apple and then exit and it showed "well done". Was even more confused afterwards. Music is so emotional, made me feel sad. My feelings for the game may change if I played it again and fully understood the objective.

Great game, I love this idea! I think I figured out all the types of tiles except the scientist... But it's pretty balanced, you're a bit confused in the beginning, but slowly explore the world and learn about all the different tiles from trial and error. Good job!

Love the atmosphere, and concept could be a really fun game if developed further.
I am a bit confused as to what each tile represents as I assume each tile indicates the direction you should go next?

Developer

Thanks for the compliment and the feedback, but ja, its not the greatest puzzle and I had to balance it as best as i could. Basically once you know the rules of each tile the game is very easy to figure out. The best way I figured to do this was to give no clues just let players try figure it out on their own and if they aren't interested I put a hints system in that you can just click through to see what each tile means.

Satisfying pop and flip of the tiles!

This is a really cool concept, the animations are great! I agree with Andrea Hayes that I could defiantly see this being a good mobile game✨

Developer

Thank you!

Very nice feel to the animation of the tile flip. The piano music fits the game the art style. The concept mine sweeper mechanic with a twist and I would like to see this idea grow in future.

Thank you, ja I really liked the idea and think I might try explore it a bit more :)

Oh man this is such a cozy game! What an amazing amount of juice you've added in the animations of the tile flips and the sounds. It makes the game feel really immersive and just that much more cozy. I hope you do find the time to work on this a bit more, because i think it could be a game that catches on (maybe especially for mobile?) Well done!

Developer
