How to Play Minesweeper

Minesweeper is a logic puzzle. The board hides mines; your goal is to clear all safe tiles without detonating any mine.

  1. Start by revealing any tile to begin.
  2. Numbers indicate how many mines touch the revealed tile.
  3. Use deduction to find safe tiles and flag likely mines.
  4. Clear all non‑mine tiles to win.

Controls

  • Left click / tap: Reveal.
  • Right click / long‑press: Flag.
  • Double‑click / chord: Reveal around a number when flags match.
  • Keyboard: Arrow keys + space/enter.

Game Modes & Difficulty

Choose a board size and mine count that suits your skill.

Beginner

9×9 grid, 10 mines. Great for learning.

Intermediate

16×16 grid, 40 mines. A balanced challenge.

Expert

30×16 grid, 99 mines. For speedrunners.

Tips & Strategy

  • Corners first: Edges often reveal more safe tiles.
  • Chord safely: Only chord when flags equal adjacent mine count.
  • Avoid 50/50 guesses: Look for alternative deduction paths.
  • Practice: Speed comes with pattern recognition.
