A take on classic minesweeper where you never have to guess: every field is generated so it can be cleared by pure logic.
Numbers tell you how many mines touch each square, so combine the clues, flag the dangers and uncover the whole field without setting anything off. Choose a preset size or set your own grid and mine count.
-
Step 1: Left-click to uncover a square and right-click to place a flag.
-
Step 2: Clicking a number whose mines are all flagged opens the remaining neighbours automatically.
-
Step 3: Your first click is always safe.
-
Step 4: On touch screens a tap acts as a left click, a long press as a right click and a drag as a mouse drag.
