    Why is the screen chopped off at the end in Adventure by Liz

    I used to love the Adventure part of the game now even if I pay to upgrade my game board on the right side is missing and I can't see the whole far right where the exit is to finish the game. I've tried downloading it again and again and even with the Premium game it comes out the same. I used to really love the game. It's very addictive and I've loved it but I can't even play it the way it is. You corrected for awhile now it's back.

    Broken for over a year by Ed

    Game is great when it works. Love it even. BUT Adventure mode does not display the right side of the game board. This issue has been with the game for over a year and Microsoft has done nothing about it. Only way to get the app to work properly again is to reformat and reinstall windows 10. But sometimes when they push an update it will break the game again.

    I'm adding to my previous rating. Nice game, nice graphics, simple & fun but lagging in responsiveness. I'd like to suggest... To use in the 'Kids Corner' only, please give parents the ability to disable the ads in settings section for the 'Kids Corner'. They'll have enough 'ad-slamming' to deal with as they get older but for now, let the kids enjoy this time to just be a kid. Thank you.

    Unplayable by Gary

    If you were any kind of minesweeper player in the past, this version is unplayable. It is incredible to me that after 20+ years of minesweeper, this horrendous version is the best Microsoft has come up with. Squares take forever to accept the click, the board is full-screen, and areas open so slowly you are waiting on the game. The original version on our old Windows 3.1 machine was infinitely better. What a waste. Just go download Arbiter, it even keeps your stats.

    I like it but... by Akashamarie85

    I love minesweeper and I like this app. The adventure mode is cute and fun but it consistently messes up when I am almost finished with a level. I can fix it most of the time by switching in and out of full screen. Sometimes it won't even show the end. It's very disappointing.

    Minesweeper for Win8 by Debbie

    If it weren't for the fact that you either keep the ads or pay for it, the game would be so much more fun. Instead, if you accidentally hit outside the box (which my mouse just so happens to do), you get stuck going to the advertisement and losing time.

    This app was good until its most recent update in which it began having VERY noticeable drops in FPS (10-20 frames dropped per second whenever I scrolled on hard difficulty). I doubt you give half a **** about what most of these comments say Microsoft, given your past actions in regards to your Facebook and YouTube applications for Windows Phone 8, but please lend an ear to your consumers for once and ameliorate this application. There's no legal bullcrap being pressured upon you from ANYBODY in regards to this so you have no real excuse apart from ineptitude.

    Microsoft's 25-year Icon Ruined by Ads by John R.

    For a quarter of a century any computer with windows was guaranteed the time-waster everyone has played. In schools and offices everywhere it was used to avoid work, in IT departments and tech industries it was used while installing, updating, compiling or rendering. Simple, yet challenging, no-frills and effortless to learn, minesweeper as ranked with solitaire as an iconic part of Windows and Microsoft culture. When they moved it to the store, it was one thing to have to track it down and get it back on any given computer but at least it was still Minesweeper. Then, ads and premium versions came. What was an experience specifically remembered for being simple got dragged into e-politics by sapping data, resources, and interfering with the user experience. At least you could ignore it as easily as banner ads on webpages. But as of December 2017, the unforgivable, abominable sin of forced, unskippable, full-screen auto-play ads is here. It's been uninstalled.
