This is a fun take on minesweeper. Honestly, it feels more like a logical puzzle than minesweeper in a way which I thoroughly enjoyed. I have to agree that a cursed on your first try is unfortunate and maybe there could be an interesting work around for that either by using the minesweeper generation strategy of the first area be not cursed and generate based on that or a fun gameplay element if the cursed is first. Great game overall! Would love to see it expanded upon further.
