Still, this is a fun dungeon crawler with outstanding graphics and music good enough for my kids to ask to buy its soundtrack.
In addition to the classic Minesweeper gameplay, ASCIILL adds new elements such as special abilities and power-ups, as well as an engaging storyline that immerses players in a sci-fi world of alien temples and ancient mysteries.

only complaint is its a bit too easy early on. either a slight time pressure to make it more exciting, or for every non-mine space in a level to have to be cleared to make it a more satisfying puzzle box would fix this.
