• Game Play
  • Strategy & Play
    • If you are new to minesweeper play a smaller board size and have a lower mine density.
      • Larger boards take longer to complete.
      • Boards with a higher mine density are harder.
    • The first click or two is going to be a guess no matter what.
      • The odds of that initial guess blowing up on you equates to the percent of cells which are bombs. If 10% of cells have mines then you have a 1 in 10 chance of the initial click blowing up.
    • After the initial board reveal, boards with a low mine density can typically be figured out with math by using the numbers revealed.
      • If you see the number 1 adjacent to a flagged cell (& the flag is correct) it means no other adjacent cells have a bomb.
      • You can do similar logical deductions for a number two near 2 flags.
      • Similarly, if you see a number with fewer mines marked than the number shown and only one cell is still covered that cell is likely a mine.
      • Boards with a higher mine density require guessing. In some cases corners of the board also require a bit of guessing even on lower difficulty levels because you only have data from a few sides.
    • To beat the game you must correctly flag all mine positions and uncover all cells where there is not a mine.
    • When your game ends click on the emoticon at the top center of the screen to replay again.
• Target Audience
  • Minesweeper fans of all ages should like this game.
