About

Comb Sweeper

Features
Read full description

Minesweeper, reimagined on a honeycomb. Every cell in Comb Sweeper is a hexagon with six neighbors instead of eight, so the classic logic puzzle feels fresh, and every number tells you something new. Press and hold to dig, tap to plant a flag, and clear the comb without setting off a single pollen popper. NO GUESSING, EVER Nothing is more frustrating than reaching the end of a board and losing to a coin flip. On Easy, Medium, and Hard, every board is checked before you play, so it can always be solved with logic alone. Hardcore keeps the classic, anything-goes randomness for those who want it. LEARN AS YOU PLAY New to minesweeper? The free Prologue, "First Sweep," teaches you step by step across five short lessons, with tips from Bristle, Buzzville's bravest little sweeper bee. A STORY TO SWEEP THROUGH The mischievous Whizzbees have rigged Buzzville's honeycomb fields! In The Whizzbee Trail, follow their trail across nine chapters, each played on a uniquely shaped board: a gear, a four-leaf clover, a sunflower, a crescent moon, a royal crown, and more. Uncover the map, find the Whizzbees, and earn the title of Master Sweeper. FEATURES • Hexagonal boards across four difficulties: Easy, Medium, Hard, and Hardcore • Guaranteed no-guess boards on every difficulty except Hardcore • A free five-lesson tutorial campaign • Pinch to zoom and pan on larger boards • Your game is saved automatically, so you can pick up right where you left off • 26 achievements to earn • Game history with your times and results • Satisfying sounds and haptics, with a press-and-hold dig you can feel FREE TO PLAY Easy and Medium are free and unlimited, and you can play three Hard or Hardcore games every day for free.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Comb Sweeper at none against Minesweeper Go's 1. Comb Sweeper also leads on ads (none vs shown). Minesweeper Go's advantage is update cadence (every 8 months vs every 31 months) and device support (3 vs 1). On price there is nothing between them.
