Mine Clues: Logic Puzzles is not a traditional Minesweeper game. It is a new number logic puzzle inspired by classic Minesweeper, where every level can be solved with deduction. Instead of opening random cells, every puzzle gives you numbers and clues from the start. Use pure logic to find all the mines and mark every safe cell. No guessing required. If you enjoy Minesweeper, Sudoku, logic grids, or daily brain teasers, this puzzle gives you a familiar rule with a new way to think. HOW TO PLAY Each number shows how many mines are in the 8 cells around it. Use the numbers to decide which nearby cells are mines and which cells are safe. Mark all mines and all safe cells to complete the puzzle. Every level is designed to be solved with logic.
