    Minesweeper - holding to flag doesn't work


    The new "hold to flag" just isn't working each time minesweeper. It is a poor functionality that has clearly not been tested properly. (separately, the category in this "create post" dropdown makes no sense). Both need to be fixed or rolled back.

    :)

    Stylus on tablet stopped working for mines and flags on last update

    I too have not been able to use my stylus to flag/set off mines. I play minesweeper nearly everyday and this started when minesweeper upgraded and changed how you earn metals among other changes.

    Have you tried using Swipe to Flag? I never use the stylus in Minesweeper as I find this works absolutely fantastically. You may need to pinch to zoom to make the board fill the screen initially (A rather annoying bug IMO), but once you've done that, swipe
    to flag is easier and quicker than a stylus IMO.

    No they mean only hold 2 of the 3 flags so the other team doesn't spawn all over. easier to hold them back by doing this

    Adventure Mode crash bug. Update please?

    Hi: Today is the first day that I cannot load the minesweeper adventure mode. I have installed all the latest updates and it just stays on the green page with the white flag moving and loading, but that is as far as it gets. All other games are working just
    fine. Thanks.
