Minesweeper Rewind+ is the classic logic puzzle you remember — beautifully rebuilt for iPhone and iPad, with one twist that changes everything: You can rewind. One wrong tap no longer ends the game. Watch a quick ad and reverse your last move. No mid-run purchases. No pay-to-win. Just the option to take one back when you really need it. Everything else is pure minesweeper. Flag the mines. Reveal the safe squares. Beat the clock. — GAMEPLAY — • Three classic difficulties: Beginner (9×9), Intermediate (16×16), Expert (24×24 on iPad / scaled on iPhone) • Tap to reveal, long-press to flag • Auto-flood reveal of connected blank squares • Mines auto-balance to stay solvable — no unfair starts • Adaptive board that fits any iPhone or iPad screen, portrait or landscape — GAME CENTER LEADERBOARDS — • Beginner, Intermediate, and Expert leaderboards • Compete against friends and the world for the fastest time • Sign in once, your scores submit automatically — REWIND, EXPLAINED — • After a mis-tap that would end your game, the Rewind button appears • Tap it to watch a short rewarded ad • Your last move is reversed — keep playing • Limit one rewind per move (no chaining) • Optional. You can ignore it forever and play classic mode — BUILT FOR TOUCH — • Big tap targets — no fat-finger losses • Haptic feedback on every flag, reveal, and explosion • Status-bar hidden for full immersion • Works perfectly with iPad Split View — PRIVACY — • No account required • No personal data collected for the game itself • Game Center scores stored by Apple, not us • Optional rewarded ads use Google AdMob (you choose whether to watch) • Full privacy policy linked below — NO BS — • No banner ads • No interstitials between games • No daily login bribes • No paywall • Just one optional ad per rewind, if you want it Made by a small indie team that grew up on the original Windows minesweeper. We wanted to play it again. We wanted one extra chance per game. We built it for ourselves and put it out there. Hope you enjoy it. — Rewind Studios
