Competitors mentioned: Classical minesweeper, Z3 solver
Concerns raised: Pencil mode can auto-win, feels like cheating, Insane difficulty not harder than Hard, Dark mode has poor contrast, Scratch mode auto-commits on win too easily, Game name confusing regarding 'reverse' concept
Feature requests: Default to daily puzzle on launch, Restore share button, Player profile with stats, Show solver count per puzzle, Submit button instead of auto-commit on correct answer
