Theres really, very few non lethal guesses. way less than a traditional game of minesweeper. If you disagree, then i believe you don't play traditional minesweeper very often. I could beat an expert Minesweeper in under 10 tries, and 5 minutes. This game required a literal blind luck pick to get enough health. This game requires about half a dozen blind picks to get the xp needed to win. It's not a well balanced game in my opinion and I don't want you to argue with me that i missed something.
