About This Game

Minesweeper is a logic puzzle built around deduction. Revealed numbers tell you how many mines touch that square, giving you the clues needed to clear every safe cell.

How to Play

  1. Reveal a square to begin; your first move is always safe.
  2. Use the numbers to identify where mines must be.
  3. Flag suspected mines and reveal every non-mine square to win.

Controls

  • Click or tap to reveal a square
  • Right-click or long-press to place a flag
  • Choose a difficulty to start a new board

Tips and Strategies

  • Start from open areas and work outward.
  • If a number already touches its full count of flags, its other neighbours are safe.
  • If all hidden neighbours of a number must be mines, flag them before moving on.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I play Minesweeper on a phone?

Yes. Tap to reveal a square and long-press to place or remove a flag.

Can the first click hit a mine?

No. Mines are placed after your first move so the opening square is safe.
