One day I was playing Minesweeper, and I got upset. I had to guess between two spots for the last mine, and I guessed wrong! I lost the whole level, just because of a lost lottery. You know what would be cool? If Minesweeper was a tactics game, and you didn't lose the entire level for a single mistake. Thus, Minesweeper Tactics was born (Edit: It was later christened as Katja's Abyss: Tactics for legal reasons)! Now you can make many mistakes before losing!
Katja's Abyss: Tactics has a campaign mode with 8 levels and an infinite mode with 2 difficulties: Normal and Deadly
