Comb Sweeper
Read full descriptionHide 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.
