Minesweeper, wrapped around a sphere. MineX 3D takes the classic and puts it on a geodesic ball you rotate with your finger. There are no edges and no corners to hide behind. Every tile has neighbours, and the board keeps going when you spin it away. ROTATE, REVEAL, SURVIVE Drag to spin the sphere, pinch to zoom, tap to dig. A revealed number counts the mines touching that tile. Most tiles have six neighbours; the twelve pentagons have five. Clear every safe tile to win. Your first tap and everything around it is always safe, so the opening move can never lose. THREE SPHERES • Beginner: 92 tiles, 13 mines • Intermediate: 162 tiles, 26 mines • Expert: 642 tiles, 116 mines INFINITE MODE A flat world that grows as you clear it. Dig out a side and the fog rolls back, opening ground you have never seen. There is no win condition and no edge to reach, only how far you get. Your world is saved between sessions. A SECOND CHANCE Hit a mine and the board holds its breath before it blows. Spend a heart to take the move back, or let it go. You start with five hearts and earn one more every day. MAKE IT YOURS Six board styles: White + Blue, Metallic Blue, Warm Classic, Neon, Pastel and Football. Plus day and night environments, adjustable starfields, and a soundtrack you can change or mute without leaving the board. COMPETE Game Center leaderboards for every difficulty, and one for Infinite ranked on ground cleared. Local statistics track your best times, win rate and deepest runs. PLAY ANYWHERE No account. No signup. No internet needed. Everything runs on your device. MineX 3D is from B1 Games.

HOW IT WORKS • Hide: walk around and anchor treasures next to your real furniture. • Riddle: written on the device by Apple's AI, or recorded in your own voice. • Search: a “cold, warm, hot” meter, haptics and voice guide your child to the treasure. FIVE WORLDS • Classic: gift boxes that burst open in a shower of stars • Pirates: chests that fling out golden coins • Space: rockets that blast off and leave a planet behind • Dinosaurs: eggs that pop open to reveal a baby dino • Fairies: enchanted toadstools where a little fairy flies out MADE FOR FAMILIES • No reading needed: every riddle is read aloud. • 5 languages: English, Italian, French, Spanish and German. • No account, no ads, no tracking: everything stays on the device. • Purchases are protected by a parental gate.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Eurekid at none against MineX 3D's shown. MineX 3D's advantage is iOS requirement (16.0 vs 26.5). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
