Annoyance: in classic minesweeper, it is impossible to click on a mine with the first click. If you were to, the game would regenerate itself with a different board that was not a mine there.
This game allows for first-click-failure.

Though, in my defense this little clone is already very unlike like minesweeper in so many ways, starting with the geometry - less sides to touch a mine (6 instead of 8). Trade-off is that the number you see is more certain about its neighbors, so the quirk of the first strike grew on me.
