Minesweeper - Be the Fastest is the classic minesweeper with a war theme โ€” but here, clearing the field isn't enough: you have to be the FASTEST. Your time enters a real-time global ranking, compared down to the millisecond with players from all over the world. Can you reach the top? GLOBAL RANKING Compete for the lowest time per level and climb the overall trophy ranking โ€” see your exact position among all players. HOW TO PLAY Defuse hidden bombs, use the numbers as clues, and advance through increasingly difficult levels across 6 themed worlds (trench, desert, arctic, pirate waters, jungle and air war). Starting at World 4, the challenge doubles: every cell hides TWO threats at once, with two numbers to decode instead of one. BATTLE MODE Challenge a friend by name, right from inside the game. You both play the exact same board โ€” whoever clears it fastest wins, and the head-to-head score stays on record between you forever. โ€ข Offline mode โ€” play without internet, your progress syncs when you reconnect โ€ข Shield, Recon and other tactical items to help on the hardest levels (using an item removes that level from the ranking) โ€ข Life system with automatic regeneration โ€” or watch a short video for an extra life โ€ข No credit card required, no gimmicks โ€” just the classic minesweeper with a fresh look and a real ranking to compete in
