Tutorial

How to Use

Click any grid cell to start the game. The first click is guaranteed to be safe and will open up a starting area.

Look at the uncovered numbers. Each number shows how many mines are hidden in the 8 surrounding cells.

Right-click (or long press on mobile) to place a flag on cells you suspect contain a mine.

Reveal all non-mine cells on the grid to win the game. If you click a mine directly, it explodes and the game is lost.

Guidance

Tips & Best Practices

💡

If a cell displays "1" and only has one adjacent unrevealed cell, that unrevealed cell MUST be a mine.

💡

Use chording to speed up your solving time once you have flagged cells accurately.

💡

Avoid guessing whenever possible; examine the corners and intersections to find mathematically guaranteed safe cells.

Answers

Frequently Asked Questions

Q How do the number clues work in Minesweeper?

Each number revealed on the board represents the count of mines hidden in the eight immediate adjacent blocks surrounding that cell (diagonals included). For example, a "3" means exactly three of the neighboring cells contain mines.

Q What is "Chording" and how do I use it?

Chording is a shortcut for experienced players. Once you have marked all the mines around a revealed number tile with flags, you can click (or tap) the number tile itself. If the number of flags matches the number displayed, the game will automatically open all remaining unflagged adjacent cells.

Q Is the first click in Minesweeper always safe?

Yes! Our modernized version implements first-click safety. The actual mine locations are only distributed across the grid AFTER your first click, guaranteeing that your first move lands on a cell with zero adjacent mines to open up a starting area.

Q What happens when I click a mine?

Clicking a mine triggers an explosion and instantly ends the game. You can click the Smiley reset face in the digital header to restart, or use the "Continue" option to undo your last move and try a different deduction.

Q Can I play Minesweeper on mobile devices?

Absolutely. The game features a mobile-friendly grid display. Tap a cell to reveal it, and tap the Flag toggle button in the dashboard (or long-press) to place or remove flags.
