I love the art of this game! I was excited to see it was similar to minesweeper. I play that on transport all the time! Maybe I don't understand the instructions, but I thought the danger number should be the number of enemies in one of the eight boxes surrounding the ninja. But sometimes, it would say 7 when there were only 4 boxes neighboring the ninja. I would move around and sometimes the number would make sense and sometimes it would be way too high for the number of boxes I already opened around me. Is this a bug? I would really love it if I could play and see the true level of danger in the boxes directly surrounding the ninja, or an explanation of the danger mechanic. With some tweaks, I would play so many levels of this game. :)

Thank you for playing!
The danger level shows the strength of all nearby enemies, not their number. So if it shows 7, it means there could be (for example) two enemies of strength 5 and 2. Or 3 enemies of strength 1, 2, 4. Etc. Different enemies have different strength. When your character fights an enemy/they lose the corresponding amount of health. But we don’t have a detailed explanation of that inside the game. Thanks for playing!
There was an idea to make characters different, but there was no time to implement it.
