Fergy2k8 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 (edited) http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/2444/++UftQ==.jpgSavior of the World (15) http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/site/gp-g.png Win a game on each board size Win a game on both medium and hard difficulty. Is this achievement glitched? Won a game on all 3 boards, but it did not unlock for me. Edit: Won on small and medium again and achievement unlocked.

duartejc Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 I had to win medium two times. Also the requirements of the achievement are different than in the game. In the game it says "Win in each board size". Also2, this is game is very buggy and freezes a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nhlkoho Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 You can replay the same board when you fail. I took a picture of each board with my phone after failing and then when you replay it, you know exactly where each mine is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Megaseven Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 For anyone that wants to get all achievements in less than 20 minutes: 1 - Play a board and try to hit a mine as fast as possible. 2 - Choose View Board and then hit Alt + Print Screen to save a high quality picture to your clipboard. 3 - Open up paint and press Ctrl + V to paste the picture, then hit F11 to go full screen. 4 - Choose Play Same Board in Minesweeper then just Alt + Tab between Paint and Minesweeper. Your mouse should line up perfectly on both so you can just put it over a mine in paint, Alt+ Tab and you'll be on the same square in Minesweeper. Probably the easiest game to get all points in regardless of skill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoffer Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 I cheated on the expert board. Took a picture of the board with my iPad, played the same board and bingo, I won. I played the expert board for probably 60 minutes before going the cheating route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rev0Knuckle Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 (edited) Played and won on easy, medium and expert 4 times each and the Saviour of the World achievement still wont unlock. Anybody got any ideas? *EDIT* Weird, unlocked whilst I was playing another game, definitely buggy! Edited December 22, 2012 by Rev0Knuckle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maka Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 You have two achievement descriptions backwards. Also, I actually got an achievement that didn't show up in the game (complete without flags), but when I looked on xbox.com, it registered, so that achievement might be glitchy.

ToCliche Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 I swear I won a game on each difficulty and I never received an achievement any body else this issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bravo cheese3 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Their seems to be a glitch and the game won't show you receiving an achievement. But if you exit then reload the game, then it will show it as unlocked. Happened to me with the "Good Start" achievement, it was making me mad then I exited and it showed it as unlocked.
