Once I got the point of the game, I couldn't find myself stopping. It's a rather addictive game that puts a new spin while still being very simple to play. It's a great time-waster than Minesweeper itself. 5/5

I love this game- if I had kreds, this is where they would go. My absolute favorite game on kong, and that includes some of those great games like pixel legions or hexiom connect.

Awesome game, once you understand the game its extremely interesting and still challenging. Kudo's to hojamaka. But I would suggest better instructions in the future. Maybe an interactive tutorial?

Btwguys, you can mark squares you haven't uncovered with the left and right arrow keys (or A and D). Hover over a square with your mouse and hit the right key to mark it going up from 2 to 5. Hit left to mark it going down from 5 to 2.

From the homepage of the creator:
When you click on a tile with a monster in it, a battle begins.
First you attack, and deal damage (equal to your level) to the monster.
On the next turn, if the monster is still alive, it attacks you back.
Your attacks alternate until one of you dies.
You don't see this, though -- the battle plays out instantly after you click.

Coolest minesweeper game ever! In some ways it is easier and more forgiving than the original version. I love it, love it!

This is a game that I could lose hours of my life to. The one suggestion I could make is, perhaps, make an in game shop. When you uncover one of the blank squares, you get a gold coin, and you can spend that to buy armor which would give damage resistance, or a weapon that would deal more damage, or even health potions. The game's difficulty is right on there with minesweeper: which is to say, still a little too hard. It's fun regardless.

Much improved over minesweeper. Though instructions are horrid as possible. In addition to working your way from clear spots, this version has you going back to get more exp to level. There's also more math involved. Once you figure out how to play, especially if you are proficient in mine sweeper, then you'll be at ease.

This game is awesome. I love Minesweeper and I love RPGs; I love the combination of logic and taking out the low levels first then building your way up. Excellent game.

Look people, it's like this: it's exactly like minesweeper except: (A) Some of the mines are worth more than 1 point (they range from 1-5 points). So an empty square next to a 1-point-mine and a 2-point-mine will display a "3". (B) You have to reveal ALL the squares to win, including the mines. You start at level one, and you can step on mines so long as they are less than or equal to your current level -- so you can step on 1-point-mines right away. Stepping on mines increases your experience, and once you have enough experience you advance to the next level. If you step on a mine greater than your current level, you lose some health, depending on how much greater it is (haven't figured out the exact formula here). Oh, and if you like the game, the author's website has different difficulty levels: http://www.hojamaka.com/game/mamosui_list.html

fantastic buried gem that i found by clicking recommended games sidebar. great strategy once you understand how it works. Too bad the lack of coherent english instructions probably hold this game back (the english instructions on the version on the dev's site are much more comprehensible).

Suggestion for an addition that'd make it a bit harder: what if you couldn't kill even the level one monsters until you found the one square that was a sword?

Why isn't there any way to mark the ones you already know but arent at a high enough level to kill? The REAL minesweeper lets you mark the mines and does NOT make you keep all the places of the mines in your head. THIS game makes you remember where all the monsters are and every time you want to click on a square, you have to check all surrounding squares and make sure you can handle it.

If you click on a monster that you already killed, a red number will appear that provides the same info as the regular white numbers. Click it again to change it back to the monster. + if this helps.

Excellent game. If you miss few monsters early on and it doesnt kill you you might not have enough of monsters to go from lvl 3 to 4.

Sorry, too confusing the instructions need to be a lot clearer. XSyndix's helped a little but I still couldn't get it 3/5

One feature I'd like to see is that, for example, if I mark a spot as a 5 because I think there is a level 5 creature then if I click that spot and I'm BELOW level 5 have nothing happen. That way if I accidentally click on something that I think is higher than me I won't lose. Kind of like putting a flag in the real Minesweeper.

I loved this game. I think the concept is great, it's just the actual flash file that needs work. Being able to access different difficulties within the same file rather than in a new site would be good, as well as a playable tutorial. I think once a few of those things get put in, it would be awesome. Also, using the Kong API so best times could go up, and maybe even gets some badges, would bring a lot more replayability and fun.

Really cool. The version here gets easy pretty quickly, but there are links to harder difficulty settings in the game description.

The original site is here, with 3 difficulties and a guide to monsters :) http://www.hojamaka.com/game/mamono_sweeper/en.html
