LeoVegas Mines

Review

This game is from one of the most experienced studios when it comes to Minesweeper games, but this particular version was developed exclusively for one online platform. Such exclusive games are rarely excellent, though, so it’s a good idea to have some concerns about the quality of the game that we have right in front of us now. So, let’s check it out and see what you can enjoy if you decide to give it a shot!

The visuals are based on a brand, and the logo is in the background at all times. There are paws on the playing field hiding things as well, which plays well with the overall theme, and what you can reveal are either coins or explosives. Revealing the latter naturally ends the given game round, so it’s the game’s fail state.

The entire game takes place on a 5x5 setup, and you can win up to 997x your bet per round. The least that you can play for is £0.20, but high rollers can stake as much as £100 per game round. Unfortunately, the game’s theoretical RTP is only 94.40%, which is well below what we’d like to see in Minesweeper games.

Gameplay and Features

Before you start a game round, you have to pick your desired bet and also how many explosives there should be on the board. By adjusting these factors, you can adjust the game’s volatility to your liking, which is what sets Minesweeper games apart from the vast majority of other online games.

Once the game round starts, your goal will be to uncover the hidden tiles one-by-one. Revealing an explosive ends the round, while revealing a coin gives you a win to consider. This gives you a decision to make, as you can either continue playing or collect your winnings. The entire process then goes on until you either collect your winnings, reveal an explosive, or reveal all coins. Revealing all coins leads to you grabbing the top possible win.

In some settings, you can get access to the random TreasureBoost feature, which increases your chances of landing a coin win whenever the TreasureBoost icon is lit up.

Review Summary

All in all, this is a straightforward Minesweeper game that unfortunately has the same issues as many other branded games out there. Its RTP is lower than usual, and there are no innovations to be found anywhere. Unless you absolutely love the platform, you should prefer other Minesweeper games instead.
