Not Minesweeper
Hello.
Have you ever had the thought "Today I don't really want to play minesweeper"? Well aren't you in luck! Because this is not minesweeper.
There are no mines. There is no danger. There are just numbers and tiles, and you (and potentially a big dose of frustration).
The game saves itself every time you change screens, or when you press S.
To reset the game just click the same tile ten times (a warning pops up well in advance so don't worry about accidentally doing it).
Good luck!

Cool game! Really had me thinking on the last few
Great Witness-like game! Lots of nice aha moments in here to discover.
I think I am stuck, maybe was needed to bring the 6 brown block, but now i would have to reset the game
._.)
nevermind
^-^
It was great to figurate the rules, but don't have much from it
6/10
This is solvable, good job getting that far!
HOW?
This is a bug! I'm terribly sorry about that, will fix as soon as I can
I don't understand what I'm supposed to do. I thought it was like nonograms but then some are opposite. It's inconsistent.
There's a block with a 3 and 2 that doesn't have any reason to not work in many options. EDIT: The answer doesn't make sense. The 3 has 4 dark and 2 white and the 2 has 3 of each.
probably a bug
It's bug or I don't understand something? 5*5=25, and transparent shield shows no other fields....
I found it's not a bug, but IMHO it's inconsistent behavior. With other fields shields give no effect to content.
I think that the block activate when they turn from unsolved to solved.
You correct, but i wrote about overall consistency.
With other puzzles You can move shield, and shielded areas also work, you just can't alter it's state.
And with this puzzle, You alter state, top-layer locked properly, but game don't count it's correct before you open shield at right...
This is a very poorly ( in other words not at all :P ) communicated point, both visually and design-wise (might not even be another puzzle that can be blocked that you put puzzles on now that I think about it?), but the blockers do block the movable panels from "docking" to the underlying panel, and that's what happens here. It still snaps whether or not it docks, I had ideas about doing something using that but never got around to it so would probably be better to have left it not snapping at all...
It's terrible awesome!
What the Bell, My game resetted. I thought the reset was for specific area with Certain reset gimmick that is not giving warning!
Dang awesome game Btw
When this occurs, on top screen appears the message: "reset the page do undo"
It's my fault for being too lazy to make a menu, sorry about that
I feel like no matter how i move the blocks in this puzzle, I'm never able to satisfy the 20, the 1, or the 6's without resetting the screen. any tips?
don't solve the bottom right puzzle to see the 1, but solve the bottom left puzzle to see the 6s - you can complete the larger puzzle from what is visible
Wow. "Not Minesweeper" sells this incredibly short, because it's so, so much more than what it isn't. More than once I nearly stopped to leave a comment saying "This isn't possible, I think you broke something--" and of course I was wrong. So glad I stuck with it. Thank you for sharing this!
Thank you for the kind words!
Loved it! The mechanic where you have to move around the levels by solving puzzles and move the blocking plates is nice. I'm a bit puzzled on how I'm supposed to remove the 4 plates at the top of this one. Don't think I can solve it without removing them!
Great little puzzler, and the premise tagline made me chuckle.
completing earlier puzzles moved those blocks down, try out what happens when you uncomplete them!
