obviously I am dumb, because I can never get very far. I always have to start guessing at some point. Maybe I should play the smaller sizes more.

Actually, the problem is mostly that it always takes me a long time to get started. I click and get one square... an 11... and what do I do now? click more random squares? oops, a monster. dead.

As with minesweeper, I always start clicking in the corners, where you're more likely to get lower numbers. Also, it took me a while to figure out that you can re-click on a monster to get its value, too.

i made it through huge with 20hp left in under 1100 seconds. i think that means i beat the game, but just to be sure, i need to do it in under 1000.

He played the game on a very hard (maybe the hardest) setting and after 437 seconds accidentally clicked on the final (and weakest) enemy and died. So close to victory.

there were two squares left, with a 1 in one of them and no way to discern which was occupied and which was empty. with 50/50 odds i had no choice but to guess. >:|

Wouldn't have clicking on the Lvl 1 blob 2 down from the offender to see what number was under it helped? Or can you not do that in Blind mode?

This is some kind of hopped-up minesweeper?

yes nabu, it's billed as "minesweeper RPG" and you get hit points and it's basically just a way to hop it up for nerds.

CJ you can't click to expose any monsters so you don't get that help in blind mode.
