How to play
In Mine Sweeper, you win a round by clicking every square on the board that does not have a mine under it. When you click a safe spot, a number appears in its place, and that number tells you how many mines are around that spot. The game mixes skill, luck and simple rules, as the developer says. It is a return of the classic minesweeper puzzle, and it is friendly for kids.
Controls explained
Click squares on the board to reveal them. Each click reveals either a number or a mine, so every click is a decision. If you click a spot with no mines, you see a number instead, and that number is the hint of how many mines are around the spot. The board is the whole interface.
Tips
- Read the first number you get and count the squares around it. It tells you how many mines are near that spot.
- A low number means fewer mines around, so the squares nearby are often safe to click.
- If a number is high, be careful with the squares around it, because they are more likely to hide mines.
- Clear the easy areas first. Safe clicks give you more numbers to work with.
- Take your time. Careful clicks matter more than speed here.
