yes minesweeper battle two people have small minesweeper boards first to beat a board adds another mine to the other, boards increase in x for the new boards then y for the new boards then repeat for every win if you hit a mine you lose 5:00 timer if nobody loses whoever has a higher score wins. non-mines clicked = +1 point, correctly flagged mines = +2 points, incorrectly flagged cells = -3 points, board completed = +((0.5*boardCells)moduloFloorOrWhateverIdk), if it's a tie it's a tie, also add a ranked mode to fairly battle
yoooo tyler referenced CTC in this vid, that's sick! I've seen so much audience overlap between the channels, it makes me wonder if some 2 or 3 person puzzle game collab vid could ever happen
@@tylermorath9098 lol me too. CTC really helpped me relax and keep my mind engaged during quarantine, and i found out about tyler in like late 2018. i would love a collab.
I love it when out boy Tyler references CTC or vice versa. It's so fun knowing that my favorite 2 puzzle channels acknowledge each other's existence. Keep up the fun and interesting videos Tyler!
@@electromika they mentioned Aliensrock in a couple of videos. Off the top of my head I remember the witness videos, but they mentioned him more than once
I desperately want to watch this video but after watching some of your demo videos my gf and I played the demo together as a date and had a blast. I can't get the puzzles spoiled!
There is just something really entertaining about watching you solve puzzles. You're observant, you catch onto things quickly, and you're good at recognizing when to change gears when needed.
I’m already gonna start asking for potionomics back because I was loving the series and am sad to see it incomplete… was such a great fit and was very enjoyable.
@@frimi8593 he said on the comments of one of them something that it might be canceled due to low views and it’s I’ve don’t really remember him ever cutting a game from the rotation mid game… excluding games with infinite replay ability… but he hasn’t annouced it so it could just be a break
@@frimi8593 I mean as far as I know he has rarely announced cancellations in the past, except like balloons, he usually just stops them but doesn’t announce it
Jesus, the Negation rule is mind-bending. It takes an entirely different kind of logic to solve, it hurts my brain... meanwhile the Cross rule is just like regular Minesweeper to me.
I love these videos, even tho it shows how dumb I am as I have no clue how to even begin to understand even when explained to me, to i still think it's amazing to see Tyler's brain at work, simple a beautiful mind
Your drawing convention always messes with my head bc I always mark safe squares with X's and mines with dots and fate somehow decided that you would do the exact opposite
In this video we see Aliensrock begin to develop a megamaniacal streak as he starts to proclaim square after square of territory as his own. When will someone stand up to this menace?
The key word to keep in mind is "sums". If there's a 0, it's either 0 - 0, or 1 - 1, or 2 - 2. Then with all the other numbers you just tip the scale towards one of the colors so they match the number. Kinda like the "health bar" in Inscryption. If you've dealt 1 damage to your enemy and they deal 1 damage to you, no damage has been taken by anyone. Except here it's mines in black and white squares.
I think this has some of the most inventive minesweeper rules I've seen. The snake one seemed fun, but the difference one felt absolutely mind breaking, and I think that's the first time I've felt that way about one of these games. The cross one, if anything, seemed tame, since Hex Cells has its area and linear clues. Regardless, I'm definitely looking forward to more of this series.
I love this game! I have already poured a ton of time in and I have nearly mastered all of the main screen. I am soooo excited to see Tyler get to {+} levels... and beyond
i wish you would change the un-revealed cells color so its easier to tell what hasnt been marked/cleared yet. and for that matter, not clicking the (completed) number itself to auto-fill out obvious stuff, like clearing zeros pains me a lot.
In 12:30 you said that it is not a mine because there is 7 remaining and you counted 8. But if the bottom right corner wasnt a mine, couldnt it be actually these 7 mines in the shape you drew? Or should the snake touch the corner or something? I mean if it had to, you probably would have put a flag over the bottom right corner already so idk if im just dumb XD. Can someone explain this to me, thanks a lot.
i have litteral tears, i paused the video to try to solve it one square and it took my 5 minutes, and then press play and he solves it in like 5 seconds....
Sometimes this gets weird to watch because I use the opposite marking notation he does (I got the lines from him so I started using dots for mines and x for clear)
Hey, have you considered playing pokémon emerald rogue at all? I'm not sure how well it would fit your channel but I've been having a ton of fun with it. The gym fights are super hard and you can kind of treat them like a puzzle.
I know there are youtube channels that play Pokemon, but I can't imagine Tyler doing it unless he was sponsored or something. Not to say that he would hate it, just that it seems a bit far removed from the general content of his channel.
@@WanderTheNomad That is totally fair. The emerald rouge rom hack is a totally different beast than any other kind of pokemon content though. It would be really interesting to see him take on the game. It's a bit of a stretch I know.
Once tyler mentioned “stability” and I started thinking about it like that it made a lot more sense to me. Still crazy hard to work out, but it was understandable at least
Editor is doing a great job with the quiet red highlighting. It looks like it's part of the game until you realize that it's psychically responding to Tyler as he talks.
I thought it was somehow part of the game until you mentioned it lol
I swear 11 : 59 PM feels like the longest minute while waiting for the new aliensrock video.
Ong fr
For me it’s 11: 00which is nicer
For me it's 21h which is nicerer
For me it's 8:59 pm
6 am for me
7:39 (In a gentle, jocular British voice) "Now don't forget, your snake can neither fork, nor touch itself."
"That would be naughty. Naughty, naughty snake."
eventually we will have 2 player minesweeper with how chaotic the possibilities are getting
2 player minesweeper, but one player places the mines.

its kinda crazy no cap
They’re not lying, they are just answering a different question.
The editing is on point. It caught me by surprise every time
Tyler not even bothering with the 5x5 puzzles makes me laugh, and cry
I love the mutual call out between cracking the cryptic and alienrock. Feels so fun
love dan's editing
I love these videos, even tho it shows how dumb I am as I have no clue how to even begin to understand even when explained to me, to i still think it's amazing to see Tyler's brain at work, simple a beautiful mind
...wait a second, Tyler watches Cracking the Cryptic? Why am I not surprised?
Me neither
Would love to see more of this, even a year later.
I'll watch every series from you, but I must admit I crave for more Potionomics.
Your drawing convention always messes with my head bc I always mark safe squares with X's and mines with dots and fate somehow decided that you would do the exact opposite
I've seen all these rules in recent sudoku's. It's really smart to look at other puzzles and see if you can improve your own puzzles that way!
In this video we see Aliensrock begin to develop a megamaniacal streak as he starts to proclaim square after square of territory as his own. When will someone stand up to this menace?
...what happened to this series?
the playlist ends here.
there should still be a few more variant left.
I'm loving both this and the LBAL update but I'm hoping for more potionomics soon
it's so stressful seeing him click the spaces individually when he can just click the number the spaces surround
I'm too stupid to understand this first variation, but I loved the video
Just imagining Arthur from RDR2 saying "You sir, are a mine".
That fucking 4 edit was gold
10:00 - 10:15 Trust me Tyler, Mario Party has taught me that all too well.
Some say Tyler still has a 3 with already 3 mines
Man, that first rule breaks my brain, I can't comprehend the lying negation one.
The key word to keep in mind is "sums". If there's a 0, it's either 0 - 0, or 1 - 1, or 2 - 2. Then with all the other numbers you just tip the scale towards one of the colors so they match the number. Kinda like the "health bar" in Inscryption.

Except here it's mines in black and white squares.
I think that first one broke my brain. I don't know how you do these, but I enjoy watching them even if I have to go have a lie down afterward...
And of course he watches Cracking the Cryptic
You know it's serious when he busts out the multiple colors
also I've given up on trying to get aliensrock to play the rest of the 150 extra levels
Tyler making reference to Cracking the Cryptic
That was a very specific reason to put a smile on my face
7:45 Thanks for reminding me to check out crackingthecryptic again for more puzzle content to scratch the brain
the snake graphic is super cute!
Also love the Nemo seagul joke xD

Tyler: I won't guess because of Expert Mode.
Also Tyler: 13:08
I love that Tyler referenced cracking the cryptic
Please more potionomics I am literally fiending right now
i cant wait for tyler to absolutely obliterate [E] which has been the bane of my existence recently
I feel like my brain is melting trying to keep up with you.
At 7:35 I was about to call Tyler a nerd then realized I have no right to do that when I’m watching minesweeper videos
man, im missing potionomics
Its insane how he just blitzes through some of these puzzles, like when he drew the snake and knew that the end was invalid.
Imagine showing someone who just beaten minesweeper this, and telling them "Level 2."
This game is so good I can't wait for more videos
this is the most confusing minesweeper video we've ever watched and its hurting our head
I was just thinking you should collab with cracking the cryptic (especially on baba is you), and then you NAMEDROPPED THEM
@7:37 @Cracking The Cryptic shoutout!
i wish you would change the un-revealed cells color so its easier to tell what hasnt been marked/cleared yet.
and for that matter, not clicking the (completed) number itself to auto-fill out obvious stuff, like clearing zeros pains me a lot.
Do you like sudoku? There are some pretty wild sudoku puzzles with alternate and/or additional logic to work under
I love cracking the cryptic!
Minesweeper video are so good! I want more!!!
Imma be honest I could keep up with the logic of past variants, but with the first one Tyler does, I am so lost
Crazy how much a simple rule change can change the idea of a game.
Large variant: +1 radius. The closest 16 other squares also are visible neighbours. Max number is 24
Day 721 of putting a random 3 digit number after the word day
Hehe comedy
Wow,this is actually a good idea
Genious
Humongous brain.
You mean Day 21? Nice idea tho.
All of these lines you’re drawing on the board are beginning to remind me of Khan Academy
Next episode: multiple numbers that lie to you
In 12:30 you said that it is not a mine because there is 7 remaining and you counted 8. But if the bottom right corner wasnt a mine, couldnt it be actually these 7 mines in the shape you drew? Or should the snake touch the corner or something? I mean if it had to, you probably would have put a flag over the bottom right corner already so idk if im just dumb XD. Can someone explain this to me, thanks a lot.
Then the 3 in the bottom right would remain unfulfilled.
Now, this. Is pod racing.
the logo for the game (seen at 0:00) has to be using one of the variant rulesets bc otherwise that 1 is already overloaded lmao
i have litteral tears, i paused the video to try to solve it one square and it took my 5 minutes, and then press play and he solves it in like 5 seconds....
YEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH MINESWEEPER LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOO
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
This is the BEST goddamn series to exist! I FUCKIN LOVE MINESWEEPEEEEEEER
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Ayoooooo Tyler's a CTC fan also!
I feel like you'd be really good at the Voltorb Flip game in Pokemon Heart Gold and Soul Silver.
Sometimes this gets weird to watch because I use the opposite marking notation he does (I got the lines from him so I started using dots for mines and x for clear)
I bought the game (no regrets) and that checkerd board subtraction one broke my brain
I am so jazzed that he watches ctc and they watch him. For some reason that amuses me greatly.
Collab?
Potionomics vid when??

Imagine snake and negotiation imagine how hard it while be + expert mode it will be near impossible
Where's potionomics??
Big new Peglin update came out a few days ago!
Poly Bridge 2 had an update! Secret World Challenge Mode!!
This is cool
I cant even beat minesweeper on 5x5 and Tyler is doing cake is lie
I wonder why he stopped this series here
I've tried a few boards of Negation and it's still incredibly hard to think about. Extremely unintuitive variant.
Once tyler mentioned “stability” and I started thinking about it like that it made a lot more sense to me. Still crazy hard to work out, but it was understandable at least
And then you get to combine it with something else
Please play more potion craft!
This hurts my brain.
My brain is melting
Minesweeper: rainbow edition
The game release is so cool
There was never a next one =(
ok this vid is the first i cant watch from aliensrock cuz im not native english way too confusing to me in a different language xD
Confusion intensifies!
My brain hurts
I’m stupid to understand but I like the video
is this sudoku sweeper ?
Can you add more colors for you to plan
Day of removing the number after day
It hurts my brain.
this is hurting my brain
Day 776 of telling Tyler that he never finished his minecraft series and that he should finish it.
Yo. Tomorrow is gonna be a sick number
I bet tomorrow is gonna be your lucky day and he's gonna bring back the series
the devil's number when he wants to lose money
Day 736 of agreeing
yup
Day 463
