ADDICTIVE AND CHALLENGING GAME ------------------------------------------------ Great addictive puzzles game with attractive gameplay and awsome graphics. Two worlds with 60 different levels. 120 levels in total! Each world contains several mines with varied and interesting powers (explosive mine, freezing mine, ticking mine, bubble mine,...) In this minesweeper puzzles, you have several levels and it's a great challenge to find all the mines ! To clear a mine, simply touch and hold your finger on the tile that you think to be a mine. To win, you can also break all the other tiles, avoiding mines. Each land contains the explosive mine and a specific mine. MISCELLANEOUS WORLDS ------------------------------------- Climb around the "Upside-down" world and visit the four lands: - The jungle and greenery mines - The icy world and freezing mines - The pink world and the lost memory mines - The dark world and ticking mines Navigate underwater without having to end the first world: - The kingdom of the giant crab and bubble mines - The sleeping octopus with mini octopus mines - The secretive clams - The white explosing mines REWARDS -------------------- Get each day reward of gold bars or power!

At each achievement you do, you receive free gold bars (eg first level, 5th level, 3 straight victory ...) AIDS ------------------------- During the game, with the gold bars, you can use helpers (at the bottom left of the game screen). These aids are really useful when you are stranded in the game. The aids are filled automatically when you pop free squares. The first aid targets a free space and pop it. The second puts some magic powder on several free tiles that you can pop safely. The last and most powerful displays for a few seconds the location of all mines. TUTORIAL: ----------------------------------------------------------------- A tutorial is available to help you to understand how to play. Bellow a detailed explanation of the minesweeper game: The goal is to clear a minefield without detonating the mines. You see first a grid of identical squares. Some random and unknown squares contain a mine. The game is played by revealing squares of the grid by touching them with your finger. If a square containing a black mine is revealed, you lose the game. If a square containing a special mine is revealed, the mine explodes and handicaps are added to the grid, for example, filling the already discovered squares. If a free square is revealed, a number appears in this square with the number of adjacent squares that contain mines. If this number is zero then the square appears empty, and the surrounding squares are automatically revealed. Using logic, you can in many case use these numbers to deduce the locations of mines or free squares. In case of mine, you can protect the square and capture a mine by adding a flag with a long touch on the screen. The game is won when all squares containing mines are located and protected with a flag. In this case, the unrevealed squares are automatically revealed and the next level unlocked. The game contains many levels in different worlds. The first levels are easy, but the difficulty increases gradually as the game advances. Each world contains a different special mine. A grid contains black mines, special mines or both. Moreover you have a limited number of moves available to find all the mines. If you have no more live, you can invite Facebook friends to play and you receive a life back! Go in option Menu to use the invite button, or wait to have 0 life. If you have an Apple Watch , you can play Minesweeper on! Discreet and fun! Good luck on your trip!

Little Minesweeper guy is free to download; Tiny Armies costs $0.99 up front. Little Minesweeper guy sells 7 one-off in-app purchases. Tiny Armies asks for nothing beyond the download.
Tiny Armies holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tiny Armies has 311 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Little Minesweeper guy's written reviews are positive against 55% of Tiny Armies's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
