Minesweeper you already know, on a board you have never seen: a hexagonal grid wrapped around a 3D sphere. Spin the globe, read the numbers, and clear every safe face. There are no edges to hide against and no corners to save you. HOW IT PLAYS • Tap to clear a face. Long-press to place a flag where you think a mine is. Your first clear is always safe. • Every face touches six neighbors, so numbers count up to six — cleaner deduction than squares. • Drag to spin, pinch to zoom. The board is a closed Goldberg sphere: five sizes from a quick 162 faces to a 2,252-face slog. • Undo a bad tap. Progress autosaves; close the app mid-game and pick it up where you left it. NINE LOOKS, ONE TAP AWAY Light and Dark for a clean read, then a set of mirrored materials rendered live: Stratosphere (a sky drifting across the shell), Mercury (smoked liquid metal with gilded flags), Ion Storm, Aurora, Galaxy, Gilded Ribbon, and Heat Lightning. Cleared faces open onto the material beneath. QUIET BY DESIGN • Entirely offline. No account, no ads, no analytics, nothing to accept. • A quiet bar — undo, new sphere, flag — and one settings sheet for theme, board size, warning style, drag inversion and effects. Nothing else on screen but the sphere. • Share card of your finished board. Free and complete. Just minesweeper, with better geometry.
