The little menu before/as you boot up the game let's you tweak some settings, including having the game "grey out" completed numbers. Just mentioning it since it might be better for viewers since it reduces some eye clutter. Personally for me I don't have a preference but I figure I'd mention it. Also figured I'd add that I love watching these. I'm 3/4 through Tametsi myself so I've already played these levels but it's still incredibly fun to watch you solve them.

Making numbers count down as you mark mines around them is another one that's quite useful imo. Avoids having to recount every time for larger numbers and can also help to avoid mistakes with different adjacency rules. The option to make gray cells work like any other color also makes more sense imo (i.e. display a gray bombs count instead of total bombs and give gray bombs a gray border instead of making them totally white). There are also some potentially useful shortcuts. Holding Ctrl shows cells that count as adjacent to the one you're hovering over. Probably not that useful though once you get used to it. But the drawing mode will become very useful later on in harder levels and Shift can be used to show drawings in non-drawing (i.e. solving) mode.

Here's a few things you should know (If you haven't found out about them already in a future episode) - The punishment system works just like classic Minesweeper. You can place flags anywhere, but if you left-click on a mine, you will get a message telling you to either reset or undo (Undoing is much faster, but the level number on the level selection screen will be white instead of blue) - There's a drawing tool covered by your facecam. You can use any color, but personally, I like to stick with black (to mark potential safe tiles) and white (to mark potential mines). You can use middle-click to erase. It becomes really useful in the later levels, where you have to make huge leaps in logic. - If you have a drawing, you can hold Shift (outside of drawing mode) to display it. - You can hold Ctrl while hovering over a tile to highlight all the neighbor tiles it.

I really enjoy watching your content. This was the first time I was screaming at the iPad “there’s a 1 in the last puzzle”. I’m glad you left that in the video. Iv’e been thinking you’re a puzzle savant with the speed in which you solve some of these things. Glad to know you’re human after all. 👍

Few helpful tips If you hold Shift, it shows your drawings, if you hold ctrl, it shows all the neighbouring tiles For later levels, i definitely recommend turning *all* the options on, as tile countdown is really useful for some of those later levels that have very weird tiling

Jesus christ I was just starting to be able to keep up with your Hexcells videos, and then you do this to me!! It is a great video, so it works out.

I think the most impressive part is the stream-of-consciousness explanation of your thought process.

Been loving hexcells and this game looks great! Looking forward to more of it :)

I cannot keep up at all with the speed at which Tyler solves this so I'm just nodding along dumbly, but his voice is a nice thing to fall asleep to

Great that you're playing Tametsi. Just got into it myself and I'm looking forward to seeing you tackle some of the more evil levels.

this is like a weird amalgamation of like 5 different puzzle games, love it!

im so happy ur doing a series on minesweeper. Ive been playing ms for about a year (I have 14 seconds on intermediate) and this series could be great for growing the ms community!

your years of logic puzzles is showing. barely a second passes and your making connections without pause with each new input. well played

as a big minesweeper variant fan, tylers ability to solve these puzzles fast enought to fit in a watchable video is impressive

Oh my word the mismatched shapes are incredible. Very interesting game here :)

I love minesweeper and logic puzzle so this is perfect for me

Seeing this video of minesweeper with weird shapes kinda reminds me of that map theorem about how no matter what you do, you can never make a map that requires more than 4 colors to paint every country a different color than all the countries touching it. Basically it makes me wonder if you could do a minesweeper variant based on that maximum of 4 shapes that are all mutually adjacent with each other.

I like being able to hear his thought process

Glad to see you finally playing this. The game gets so much harder though so I’m looking forward to seeing you work through the later levels

This is crazy, but I also love it!

I used to play Minesweeper,didn't like it much, but now I feel like I would like it very much. It makes my brain think critically to solve puzzles, and I love puzzles.

If you can find it (only been released on a niche BBS and maybe also the author's blog before), try 死兔, or Dead Rabbit, which is a "mine sweeper" that you walk to the goal without triggering any mines. That game was said to get rather deep later on, but I've never done solving most of the levels. Though IIRC people said that some of the levels are more meta than regular mine sweeper, since you have to teleport semi blindly to get to the goal

I have 100% this game... especially near the end it gets absurd both in terms of logical complexity and lengths of the puzzles :P while it is one of my favorite puzzle games of all time and I am glad to see it get attention on the channel, it'll be a bigger undertaking for youtube than even the likes of baba to go for completion. Eagerly awaiting more content for this game! and beware the tubes >:)

Probably not dodecahedra, but minesweeper on a 3d surface could be cool. Could do just Pac-Man world, which represents a torus, where you have to consider the neighbors on the opposite side. Bonus if you could move the grid freely so you can get disoriented. Or an actual 3d surface where you have to drag and rotate to see it all.

It occurs to me now just how much of minesweeper logic is based on set operations, now that I have a class on logic and sets I'm taking. Mostly set subtraction and intersection, I think.

@dacomputernerd4096

So like if two numbers have shared adjacents, you know the number of mines in the intersection of their adjacent cell sets is at most the smaller number. Thus, the larger number's adjacency set minus the smaller number's set has a number of mines equal to at least the difference. Finally, if the cardinality of a set of cells is equal to the number of cells, all cells in the set are mines. These rules likely generalize to all sets of cells which are not disjoint, including other pair of numbers' intersection and difference sets

@dacomputernerd4096
