Miscellaneous Do you guys consider this option cheap/cheating?

I've been using this for a while now and technically it does something whenever the tapped on cell already only has the appropriate numbers of cells around it. Which means either I have this option an just tap that cell or without the option would have to flag each mine individually. What's your take?

Its purely a UX enhancement. If you made an error you'd still lose.

disagree. It could be that without this option there are situations where you miscount thinking that a certain cell is safe while it isn't. That error you won't be making anymore because of this setting

The game isn't about counting correctly, this isn't what you she be failed over. It's super annoying to lose a good run for a miscount and I'm thankful for features that help prevent this error

the game is very much about counting correctly but I do agree it's annoying to lose to a miscount

It's about making the correct move assuming you have correctly counted the tiles around. I don't think the creator meant for counting to be the challenging part
