No mines in minesweeper?

[Magnetic_dud]

I downloaded minesweeper, but there are no mines, instead I have to kill ladybugs. So bad, I hate that, I want mines. Is for everyone or it just for my country?
Maybe killing ladybugs is less violent than die on a landmine...

Is it this game? Microsoft Minesweeper | Windows Phone Apps+Games Store (United States)

If so, it's a puzzle game, not an action game.

Switch the theme.

How to switch the theme?
I see no option for that.
In the pivot there isn't and in settings there is only toggles for alerts, timer, and so on

Open the app....you reach the games page....swipe to the right....you'll get the themes page....select the first option....

I think it checks the location, and if you're in a stupid country like mine where "mines" in a game are too "violent", it will force the ugly ladybug theme

Have you tried changing the region on your phone? My phone is set to the US and it shows both themes - perhaps it only checks your phone setting, not your location.

Justout of curiosity, what country are you in?

Setting language to en-us and country to usa, will show the mines theme.
Switching back to italian, will revert to ladybugs

I noticed just now also that the italian version of Windows 7 also has ladybugs instead of mines
Omg...

You switched it to mines? You're a violent man! The goverment is caring about you, mines that looks like Porcupinefish may and will destroy your brain, you'll become a psycho! AND DONT EVEN TRY TO EAT OR LOOK AT THAT FISH, I beg you, it resembles a mine even more than those cartoon mines in Minesweeper.

I'm complaining to PETA....you're killing innocent porcupine fishes and ladybugs
