Different mode suggestion for mines

When stake was first released and it was still in testing phase I thought mines would be much more like minesweeper.

Back in the day I did play alot of minesweeper when my internet went out (lol)

How about a new game mode for mines? Im talking about you get a gamefield of x boxes and then u can select the amount of bombs, but in order to get money you will have to get all the safe boxes , and not click any bomb. Only then you will get your payout prize.

So have and old fashioned minesweeper, which will tell you how many bombs are next to your box so lets say you click a box in a corner and the number 2 appears. This means there would be 2bombs next to your box u clicked and 1  safe box.

 

Thoughts? If you got anything to add to this , please comment below, if u like this idea, just use the emojis to vote!

Thanks, im well aware it might need some tweaking to get it up and running on site.

Like im sure alot of people have played minesweeper in the past and once you get the basic mechanics of the game it isnt too hard, however completing a full grid is something else. Fuckups do happen, and even if you can solve it... perhaps you could put a timer next to it so if u complete it in x minutes you get x payoit, but if you take too long , like u need 5minutes for a certain grid, the house wins!

That could be one of the ways you could implement some advantage for the house, or a way to define payout.

Nah, it won't work cuz gambling is all about probability, in this case you would be able to earn more if u were better than others which will definetely not work

Thaats were tweaking would come in. Make it time-based or still have some blanks with no numbers, so you still would have to take a chance. Or reward based on the progress you made(so not complete entirely still would get u something. Like say you complete 25% of the grid makes u break even, 50% finished gets u payout 2.5, 75% gets u 4.3x and a fully finished grid gets u 14.9x 

(Numbers are just examples)

Why do you think it would not work? Cos you can be good at it? Im sure alot of ppl claim to be pro at gambling or guessing cards in hilo for example. Doesnt mean you will always win. Aslong as they can make it so that there can be a houe edge/advantage I dont see why not.

Let's be serious Kris, that is a bullshit, gambling means probability, means you are playing mostlikely against the house and the house have always bigger % than you.

Every kind of gambling is designed to make you lose money, so if in your version, being pro would mean that you can make more than 50% to double ur basic capital, then the game cannot be created, cuz in the long runs the house would only lose, it's like card counting in blackjack, u can use a trick to be overcome the house edge thats why its illegal in casinos.

The main thing in gambling is that you CAN NOT be good at it. Everyone starts with the same chances.

That's my first thought on the gameplay of mines. But If they do it like that, it will be an easy btc for those who know how to play minesweeper.

As awesome as it would be to have minesweeper to win this it will come down to skill rather than luck (except for the first click) so isnt really good for gambling based site
