AquaMines is a traditional minesweeper game. It is a puzzle game requiring deduction and luck. Starting with a minefield of hidden tiles, the objective is to reveal all “safe” (non-mine) tiles using clues provided by the previously revealed tiles. GameCenter is supported for leaderboards and achievements. This game is a passion project that is free to play with NO ads. We hope to add new tile-sets and feature improvements in the future.
