SmartMines is an exciting board game where your goal is to earn as many points as you can without clicking on a mine; what makes this game different from the well-known Minesweeper game is the fact that it gives you the opportunity to create your own layout having the desired size and number of mines.
Its interface is simple and interactive, designed for users of all ages as long as you are aware of the game's rules; if you are new with this type of game, you can always check the available manual and learn how to play.
The game comes with three levels of difficulty to choose from as well as allowing you to create your own layout by entering the wanted number of mines, width and length sizes.
However, in order to win this game you will need to guess where are the safest places within your board and flag the squares where you think the mines are located; the more points you earn, the higher you get onto your Highscores chart.
A relevant disadvantage of playing this game is the fact that you won't be able to save your progress.
To sum it all up, it's worth trying SmartMines, an entertaining board game that will provide you a relaxing way to spend time in front of your Mac.
