Nora's Mine Sweeper

The classic game of mines and numbers, rebuilt for iPhone. Open squares, read the numbers and flag every mine. Your first tap is always safe, and a zero opens its whole neighbourhood at once. MADE FOR A PHONE • Flag switch: turn it on and a tap plants a flag instead of opening the square, so flagging a mine never sets it off. A long-press flags too. • Expert on a phone: the 16 × 30 board turns on its side, so a phone held upright shows every row as large as the screen allows, with pinch to zoom. • On its side, the controls move to the edge that was the top of the phone, and the board gets the rest of the screen. • Chording: tap a number whose flags match it to open the rest of its neighbours. • Leave the app mid-game and the clock stops and the board is covered until you come back. THE CLASSIC LOOK, ALL OUR OWN Raised grey squares, red seven-segment counters and a face that smiles, frowns or falls in love, every piece drawn for this app. Dark mode keeps the same shapes in darker greys. THREE LEVELS • Beginner: 9 × 9 with 10 mines • Intermediate: 16 × 16 with 40 mines • Expert: 16 × 30 with 99 mines The app remembers the level you play, and your best time on each. TWO WAYS TO WIN Open every safe square, or flag exactly the mines and nothing else. FOR EVERYONE Full VoiceOver support: every square says its row, column and what it shows, with a Flag action. Haptics mark each flag, a win and a loss. No ads, no purchases, no accounts, no tracking. It works offline and collects nothing.
