About Minesweeper

Minesweeper is the classic logic puzzle. Tap to uncover squares on the grid — each revealed number tells you how many mines touch that square. Use those clues to deduce where the mines are hiding, flag them, and safely clear every other square. One wrong tap and it's game over. Your first tap is always safe.

How to play

• Tap a square to uncover it — your first tap is always safe.
• Numbers show how many mines touch that square.
• Use the numbers to deduce where mines are hidden.
• Turn on Flag mode to mark suspected mines.
• Clear every safe square to win — hit a mine and you lose.

Controls: Tap to uncover; toggle Flag mode to mark mines (right-click also flags on desktop).

Tips

• Start in the open middle — it clears the most space.
• A '1' touching a single unknown square means that square is the mine.
• Flag the mines you're sure of to keep your deductions straight.

Is Minesweeper free?

Yes — it's a free browser puzzle that plays instantly.

How do I flag a mine on mobile?

Tap the Flag toggle to switch to flag mode, then tap squares to mark them.

Is the first tap safe?

Yes — mines are placed after your first tap, so you never lose on the opening move.
