Reminds a lot of a more forgiving version of minesweeper, extended to the max in time. Great to do on the side whilst listing to a podcast or just on its own, to pass more of our finite time.
25 часов игры за бесплатно. Хорошая сделка. Зайти решить пару-тройку секторов, чтобы немножко отдохнуть самое оно. Многие жалуются на политику. Согласен, но большую часть таких новостей я пропускал, так как это скучно. И вас никто не заставляет их читать и тем более оставлять негативный обзор из-за этого.
Отменная игра для убийства времени

哭了,又玩完了,以後盯盤要玩甚麼
once you start, you can't stop
Perfekt um sich auf intelligente Weise die Zeit zu vertreiben. Keine Hektik, kein Zeitdruck, in aller Ruhe mit beliebigen Unterbrechungen die Felder füllen und dabei nebenbei Augen und Konzentrationsfähigkeit trainieren.
Please stop making these, I can't stop playing them, help
Another great game from Ffrench (& co.) great pixel art and soundtrack. 3 thumbs up
It is good, I don´t like the way they present certain news, I am no fan of any party or political movement, so I don´t care but I don´t like the tendencious of many of it, anyway its a exellent idea to make a resume of the mayors moments of the year. Cheers to the developers
So addictive!
