Minesweeper is a single-player puzzle game. The objective of the game is to clear a rectangular board containing hidden "mines" or bombs without detonating any of them, with help from clues about the number of neighboring mines in each field. To win you need to determine the location of all mines. To achieve this goal, you have to click a square and if it is empty all adjacent empty squares will open up. If you ever click on a box containing a mine, it will explode and you'll lose. It is possible to plant a flag to mark the alleged location of a mine, using the button corresponding to the flag. If the clicked box is empty, all adjacent empty boxes will open recursively. To win, there must be no mines incorrectly marked with a flag. On the other hand, it is not necessary to mark all the mines to finish; you just need to determine all the empty boxes.

The same board for everyone, every day. One attempt. How far you push it is up to you. SAPPER is minesweeper with no edges. Each day the world gets one shared minefield, identical for every player. Start on safe ground and sweep outward. The farther you go, the denser the mines and the more every safe tile is worth. A Cash Out button sits on screen the whole time. Bank your score, or push one more row into the unknown. Hit a mine and the run ends with half of what you had not banked. Cash out and all of it is yours. That choice is the whole game. Then see how your run stacks up and share the shape of the territory you cleared. Miss a day and it is gone. Tomorrow there is a new board, the same for everyone, again. MORE WAYS TO PLAY Endless: a fresh board every run, whenever you want. Chase your personal best. Rush: two minutes on the clock. Clearing tiles buys time, mines cost it, and there is no Cash Out. How long you last is the score. The Daily is free for everyone, forever. One single purchase unlocks the full game, Endless and Rush included, for good. Your first day comes fully unlocked, so you know exactly what you are buying. No subscriptions.
