This game is the 17th iOS game for the Web Game Site "DAN-BALL". Vertical scrolling style minesweeper. Mine Tower is a puzzle game where you have to open all the cells of the board without detonating a mine. The numbers indicate how many mines are contained in the 8 neighboring cells. On/Off of a flag is made by carrying out the tap of the closed panel. A panel closed by the double-tap can be opened. When the tap of the number is carried out, and the surrounding number and number of a flag (mine) are the same, the panel except having stood the flag opens. When you tap on the mine, you'll get a penalty. Uncover the cells using the number as a clue. When the un-tapped cells without a mine reach on the bottom line, the game is over.

This game has two experiences: Classic mode and convenience mode. Classic mode: simulate the function of right-click mark on the left mouse button of computer, click open, double-click mark. The first time is to put flags, the second time is to question, and the third time is to cancel. Double click a number to open all the unmarked blocks near the number. Convenient mode: the click operation used on the mobile phone can be divided into turn over mode and flag inserting mode, which is clear at a glance. But pay attention to the distinction! When the mode is turned over, the flag is turned over. It is possible to encounter a bomb and the game is over. At the beginning of the game, there are opening hints to help us have a good start, rather than relying on luck to randomly point out. In the process of the game, you can click the game snapshot to make a picture of the current game situation, which can be saved locally or shared with our social software. At the end of the game, if the game passes, we will calculate the index and logarithm according to the number of mines, the proportion of mines and the current level to get the score of the game. Game scores can be accumulated, and you can see the accumulated honorary titles in the game records. This game supports three kinds of theme switching: default style, red powder morning light, purple Luo Qingmeng, and supports day and night mode.
