About
The strait is mined.
You can’t see what’s ahead.
You have to read the sea to survive.
Strait Escape is minesweeper on a moving ship.
You command a ship clearing mines across the world, keeping trade and travel routes safe. Start at the left edge of a minefield and navigate to the right. The waters ahead are hidden - only what’s behind you reveals the truth.

WHO IT’S FOR
If you like minesweeper, this is a deeper, more tactical version. If you’re new, early runs are forgiving so you can learn without frustration.
The board is fair.
You fail because you took a risk - not because the game cheated.
Chart your course.
Read the sea.
Escape the strait.
