About
Minesweeper, done right — a clean, fast, and scrupulously fair take on the logic puzzle you already know by heart.
No gimmicks, no gotchas. Just you, a grid, and the numbers your own safe clicks leave behind. Read the clues, deduce what's safe, and clear the board without setting off a mine.
FAIR BY DESIGN
• True first-click safety — your very first tap is always safe and always opens a useful area. You'll never lose on move one.
• Every board is solvable by deduction. Confidence, not luck, decides the outcome.
BUILT FOR REAL PLAY
• Three classic difficulties: Beginner (9×9), Intermediate (16×16), and Expert (30×16) — the decades-tested ratios, preserved exactly.
• Custom boards — set your own width, height, and mine count, with a warning when density gets too high to solve cleanly.
• Chording — tap a satisfied number to clear its neighbors at once, so bigger boards stay fast, not tedious.
• Flags, question marks, a mines-remaining counter, a timer, and the classic smiley reset.
• Pinch to zoom and pan large boards; a one-tap Dig/Flag switch and a left-handed option for comfortable one-handed play.
DAILY CHALLENGE
• One shared board a day — the same for everyone — with a streak to keep alive and a result you can share.
MAKE IT YOURS
• Four themes: Classic, Slate, Sunset, and Terminal.
• A colorblind-friendly number palette.
• Per-difficulty best times, win rates, and a "Flawless" badge for clearing a board with every mine correctly flagged.
TWO EXTRA MODES (optional)
• Fog — only cells near your last move stay lit, adding a memory challenge.
• Countdown — beat the board before the clock runs out.
NO NONSENSE
• No ads. No in-app purchases. No accounts. No tracking. No data collection.
• Works completely offline. Every theme is free.
Whether it's your two-minute daily habit or a long Expert grind, this is Minesweeper the way it's meant to be played.
