## What is Minesweeper Royale!?

You've been training for this game since 1995.

MINESWEEPER ROYALE turns the classic into a live multiplayer showdown. The bevels, the red LED counters, the smiley — it's all here. But now every safe tile multiplies your run… and the whole world is digging with you.

WORLD RANKING — one daily board, identical for every player on Earth. Clear it clean, post your time, and see exactly where you stand: today, all-time, and in your country. Server-timed, so nobody can fake a run. And on the WORLD LADDER every trophy you ever earn counts forever — climb 10 tiers from Rookie to Legend of the Field. Who becomes the Minesweeper King?

DIG OR BANK — every reveal raises your multiplier at fair odds. Bank your run, or push one more tile. Hit a mine and it's all gone.

SAME BOARD, 8 PLAYERS — you can't see where rivals dig, only their runs climbing. The last players to bank split the Survivor Pool.

THE DAILY — one board, the whole world, one attempt. Share your result card, keep your streak.

WEEKLY CHAMPIONSHIP — three boards, Beginner to Expert, bottom three cut after each. Every table is archived forever: weekly podiums, a hall of fame, and medals worn next to your name in every lobby. Champions wear the crown.

LEAGUES — Bronze to Legend, weekly promotions. Trophies come from clean runs only — rank can't be bought.

PLAY WITH FRIENDS — invite your crew, add them by player tag, send daily defuser gifts, fill the squad chest together, and talk in live chat.

YOUR STATS — games, win rate, best and average times, winning series — tracked per difficulty, like the good old days.

OFFLINE CLASSIC — pure 1995 minesweeper, no internet needed. Best times per difficulty.

DIG UP ARTIFACTS — treasures buried under the tiles. Every 8 weeks a SEASONAL DIG rotates in: fresh sets that only drop during their season, duplicates convert to shards, and completing the album earns an exclusive title and frame. Your museum is forever.

THE WORKSHOP - spend your winnings on smiley flairs, name frames and titles that everyone at your table sees. Points buy expression, never power - and gems can never buy them.

POINTS DUELS - challenge a friend head-to-head: both stake points, same board, no defusers, no boosters. Higher clean bank takes the pot.

No casino. No cash-outs. Just the purest push-your-luck puzzle ever made.

Minesweeper Royale is free to play with optional in-app purchases.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.7 — 2026-09-04

SMOOTHER START
The round countdown now matches the real start, and the tutorial cards no longer flash at launch.

FRIENDS ARE BACK
Every player now has a permanent #TAG. Share yours, add friends by tag, or tap a name in LIVE DIGS. Invites are unlimited — your first 3 shares each day earn 3 defusers + 200 pts.

CLEARER RESULTS
Duels show the winner first with a WINNER tag. Statistics are split into ONLINE (Royale, Daily, Championship), CLASSIC practice and ALL GAMES, with what counts as a win written next to each number. The trophy ladder in the world ranking is now called ROYALE, loads instantly and scrolls through the full top 100.

Also: calmer live rankings during rounds, and a fix for a rare server hiccup when a player joined mid-round.

### 1.0.6 — 2026-09-02

SMOOTHER ROUNDS
Live rankings, rival progress and the world ladder now update in calm batches instead of one repaint per event. No more stutter mid-dig on older iPhones, and the app stops writing to storage every second.

STILL FRESH FROM 1.0.5
Championship home with weekly archive and medals, the World ranking (lifetime trophies, 10 tiers, monthly view), and Season 1: LOST CIVILIZATIONS in the artifact album with shards and chisels. The Daily Gift is now an honest free gift, Premium explains itself before you buy, and account deletion really deletes.

Found something odd? Tap ℹ in the app: every rule and every reward is written down there.

### 1.0.5 — 2026-09-02

NEW - SEASONAL DIG: every 8 weeks a fresh artifact season rotates in - two new sets to unearth while you play. Duplicates are never wasted: they convert to shards you trade for points or a chisel that frees any missing artifact. Complete the album for an exclusive title and frame that stay yours forever. Your original collection lives on in the permanent Museum.

NEW - WORLD LADDER: a lifetime trophy ranking that only ever grows. Climb 10 tiers from ROOKIE to LEGEND OF THE FIELD, see how many players hold each tier, and collect a one-time reward per tier. A season view shows the current month. Rank can never be bought.

NEW - CHAMPIONSHIP HOME: the championship tab is now always open - countdown, your path to qualify, a permanent archive of every week table with podiums, a hall of fame, and your own history. Podium finishes earn a medal worn next to your name at every table. Every cleared board and survived cut now pays points, and the weekly top 3 win gems. Prizes pay on your first table of the week - further runs are training that can still improve your archive score.

SMOOTHER: the round countdown now shows the real remaining time, joining mid-round shows a calm waiting screen, a finished Daily opens the calendar instead of replaying the boom, and the artifact album explains all its rules right in the app.

### 1.0.4 — 2026-08-30

STABILITY: reconnection is now instant after network changes and updates - the frozen board and frozen mine dialog reports are fixed.

NEW - DAILY CALENDAR: a full monthly view with your world rank on every played day, plus streak rewards at 3, 7, 14 and 30 straight days (up to a free Premium Pass).

NEW - ELITE FLAIRS: two status tracks that never mix. Pro flairs can only be earned with points. Whale flairs can only be bought with gems. Everyone at the table sees the difference.

NEW - DUEL INVITES: challenge links now carry your code - your friend taps, accepts, and the duel is on.

FAIRNESS: instant one-dig banks no longer collect the Survivor Pool - it belongs to real runs. The Artifact Pack now delivers straight into your Album.

### 1.0.3 — 2026-08-29

Winning means something now:
- ROUND SUMMARY: every royale round ends with your placement (#3 of 8) over a full table scoreboard - share your #1 finishes
- THE WORKSHOP: spend points on flairs, frames and titles everyone at your table can see
- POOL PRESTIGE: lifetime stats and earned titles, counted by the server
- POINTS DUELS: challenge a friend, both stake points, winner takes the pot - clean rules only
- Clearer onboarding and a cleaned-up shop
- More thinking time on every board (90/120/180s) - and idle runs decay 1%/s, so nobody camps the pool
