Playing Dragonsweeper because of Ars' article. Did I have any way out of this without guessing?
-
Woah didn't know that one, mind blown thanks!

Thanks!

Ah, that's what that blue bull with yellow hair is.
::: spoiler some additional details
Gargoyle - always spawns in orthogonally (vertically or horizontally) adjacent pairs
And they always face each other.
Minotaur - a treasure chest always spawns in one of the 8 spaces surrounding him
And they always face away from the chest, but turn towards it when you open the chest.
Dragon - Defeat it to end the game with a win.
Defeat it to get 13 gold, pick up gold to reveal crown, pick up crown to end game. But if you're trying to collect all the gold you can, it's OK to defeat the dragon and keep going a little.

That was dope! 363/365 points

Woah I'm still getting new stuff this is great! The Romeo and Juliet equidistant is particularly cool! Thank you!
I'm using Sync for Lemmy which hasn't updated in forever so its spoiler tag function is all borked for me :<

From what I could tell the gnome teleports to a random still-covered empty tile and dies when there's nowhere left to run.
-
Have you ever won?
-
It's very possible to defeat the dragon. I can do it pretty regularly after a day of heavy playing. Getting the achievements is tougher. And I still haven't gotten a clean wipe yet (I've been 1 tile away twice though)
-
I was one heart away from getting 13 hearts, but at that point I was out of options.
-
I did it on my eigth or ninth try. I lost several times due to stupid mistakes, clicking on a mine when I forgot that there was a 1xx clue next to it, seeing only that xx was small.
-
Unlike in minesweeper, it's possible to make a bad move early on which later causes you to enter a situation where you're forced to guess.
-
I guess I just haven’t gotten the hang of it yet.
-
I do not understand how to play this game at all.
-
Have you paid attention to the patterns visible when the game ends? The purple slimes + wizard are really helpful to locate. I also generally tried to avoid using the walls since it seems like they don't always give as many points as they take to kill. I also played on an earlier version, it might have been easier.
-
Finally got my first full clear this morning, and I've gotten 2 more since then. I've now gotten all of the achievements and I just completed a 2 stamp game!
-
Yeah, I’ve gotten a 2 wins, the first was almost a full clear! I’m starting to get the hang of it.
