Finally got all three of these achievements in one go!!
I wish I could get the achievement and then go back because I would also have been able to clear the board and it would have been really satisfying to get all 4 at once.
Also I’m pretty sure for the rat pacifist, killing the rat king doesn’t stop you from getting the achievement (I challenged myself to not kill him in this run) which is counter intuitive imo.
After several months of loving this game and comming back over and over even tho I mastered it...... That's the sexiest thing I've ever seen. Nice one mate.
Playing this has reminded me how important game design is and what can be achieved without godrays. Just wicked. Well done 👏👏👏👏
Edit: I want you to know I decided to create a category on Itch about excellent examples of game design, and this is both the first entry and the inspiration for the list.
Here’s my review:
You’re able to make educated decisions that still have an element of risk to them, which makes tension present and the game not feel unfair yet punishing.
You can improve your chances by learning the mechanics, and learning the patterns of the encounters which helps getting things right but not ensuring it.
I didn’t like the idea of the mimic being a feature of the game because it felt random - but the more I thought about it, it isn’t: the mimic will appear on chests alone. Now there’s a chance for reward, but there’s a chance for defeat also. Will you take the risk? You can opt out of the risk by not opening the chest, so now it falls to you, the player, to make the choice.
Simplistic graphics and accessible on a mobile device, too. Input is touch. No time limits. Just method. Audio is enough. And there’s charm for sure by clicking on your vainglorious hero.
I finally got it. I kept trying to break all the bricks before killing the dragon. Didn't realize I could kill the dragon and then collect the bricks. 10/10 game
I tried downloading and opening `index.html` in a web browser, but that just shows the randomization screen and then its animation stops and that's it. What's the proper way to play this offline?
yeah as the other guy said, you need to prioritize a lot the XP that doesn't damage you (and the 10 dmg enemy that gives a net total of 37 XP)
it may sometimes be risky but most of the time you should be doing good by following that plan, usually you'll have like 2-4 health scrolls most of the time
a thing I figured you can do too is just tapping tiles around the dragon until you break the egg. I usually want to kill 5 HP worth of enemies, level up, 5 HP again, level up, then 6 HP and level up, then the next level requires you to get 9 XP with 6 HP. The egg gives exactly 3 XP so you can level up a 4th time without scrolls nor relying on chests
I think the Orb should show Mimics. I had a mimic tagged as 11, hit an orb, and then opened the now-visible chest without thinking. Obviously I won't make the same mistake again, but it felt like an unfair death, and the reveal would be a cool little bonus when it does happen.
I had no idea what I was doing at first but I couldn't stop clicking. Great presentation and it just gets better as you learn all the hidden nuances. : ) I played very slow and got lucky after a math blunder in one of the corners. ; D
Great game. I started playing this before the update and I'm glad to see the improvements. The game seems to be more difficult than before, which made it almost impossible for me to clear the board. But I also found it more interesting. (I got 350/365)
gud game, this is quite hardcore, but I notice you give player more chance to actually get the max score, I fumble some choices at the end cause I can not depeleted the heart bar to maximize the kill I got but here I am
Just played this for DAYS until I had all the challenge stamps. Got my room mate hooked on it too. Really, really fun. Thank you so much for sharing it!
Hi! :D I'm only missing the rat pacifist stamp, and Jesus Christ I've been trying haha. I have many q's! When one does accidentally find a lil rat, does it only count when collecting exp? Does the rat king count too? Aaaaaah LOVE THIS GAME

Got it!!
This is by far my favorite minesweeper game!
One of the best takes on the sweeper out there. Grats!
pretty fun, good game
Great game. Great design. Cheers!
Who's the rat king now?
After several months of loving this game and comming back over and over even tho I mastered it...... That's the sexiest thing I've ever seen. Nice one mate.
The king is dead. Long live the king!
Por fin lo conseguí completar entero (máxima puntuación), tremendo juegardo
Game just flashes rows of colours rapidly when I try to run it, epilepsy machine.

mimic is not random, less random than the beholders ;)
You’re probably right - skill will reveal all zo/
Mimic value is 11, while common chest is 0. Just do the math and you will know if it is a mimic or not...
Gods, this game is wicked. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I want to steal this amazing idea but expand on it in some way… not sure what yet.
I DID IT! I FINALLY DID IT!
welcome to the family
this is the most tightly designed game i've played in a while! figuring out how to get the clear board stamp was very rewarding <3
I finally got it. I kept trying to break all the bricks before killing the dragon. Didn't realize I could kill the dragon and then collect the bricks. 10/10 game
Perfecta! Lovers, egg, rats and the little gnome
I really like this game, thank you!

did you make sure to only level up when at 0 hearts?
I believe so, but I must have slipped at some point!
you need to rush early for the xp points to fully clear the board
yeah as the other guy said, you need to prioritize a lot the XP that doesn't damage you (and the 10 dmg enemy that gives a net total of 37 XP)
it may sometimes be risky but most of the time you should be doing good by following that plan, usually you'll have like 2-4 health scrolls most of the time

The egg gives exactly 3 XP so you can level up a 4th time without scrolls nor relying on chests
I finally got it, thank you all! It really is about that early xp so the health scrolls can be used for more hearts later.
Yeah great game overall i loved it and personally i play it when im borerd
Your idea of playing a game is clicking everything as fast as possible without giving half a thought about what you are doing.
You didn't love this game, and you don't play it when you're bored.
Username checks out 😂
took me about a week to beat, looking forward to completing all stamps :)
got a score of 347
Awesome game
This game is fun but man is it brutal.
I think the Orb should show Mimics. I had a mimic tagged as 11, hit an orb, and then opened the now-visible chest without thinking. Obviously I won't make the same mistake again, but it felt like an unfair death, and the reveal would be a cool little bonus when it does happen.

Finished with one half of the board cleared. 63 tiles not revealed.
good but hard
fantastic, hope there is a sequel
awesome game, thanks! with love to details: those hints with rats and gnolls are great!
Going to have to post my bragging rights screenshot now, as is tradition.
3/4 Achievements in the same run (with the last being impossible to do at the same time with any of the others).
Hi. GREAT GAME!
Maybe make space-bar a reload button? A little bit tired of moving mouse back and forth.
Great game. I started playing this before the update and I'm glad to see the improvements. The game seems to be more difficult than before, which made it almost impossible for me to clear the board. But I also found it more interesting. (I got 350/365)

Anxiously waiting for another update!
how you guys win without killing any mouse???, and clear board???
Spam new games until you get one where you can kill the Mouse King early. He/She doesn't count.
i will remember this game in the rest of my life

Rat king does not count!
