### 【Product Description】 Pocket Minesweeper is a classic puzzle game tailored for Chinese users, featuring a Windows 95/98-style interface: grayscale 3D borders, pixel-art number colors, a smiley reset button, and digital tube-style displays for timer/remaining mines, recreating familiar controls and visuals. ### 【Core Gameplay】 • Mines are generated before the first reveal; the first tap and its adjacent cells are safe. Non-mine cells trigger automatic cascading reveals. • Supports flagging, with remaining mine count updating dynamically. • Win condition: reveal all non-mine cells; stepping on a mine ends the game, with full minefield view available. • Timer starts on the first valid reveal and stops on win/loss. ### 【Difficulty & Records】 • Multiple difficulty levels from easy to hard; auto-adapts board size, scaling and scrolling on large-screen devices for readability and touch control. • Local best times are recorded separately for each difficulty; data is stored only on-device with no account or cloud sync. ### 【Target Audience】 Players who enjoy puzzle logic, retro games and casual, bite-sized entertainment; suitable for all ages with simple controls and clear rules. ### 【Access & Support】 Free to download.
