Minesweeper

Open every safe square without hitting a mine. Numbers tell you how many mines touch that square.

Difficulty
Mines 10 Time 0:00

How to play

Tap a square to reveal it — your first tap is always safe. Each number counts the mines in the 8 surrounding squares; use those counts to work out where the mines must be. Right-click (or turn on Flag mode and tap) to plant a flag on a suspected mine. Reveal every mine-free square to win — the faster you clear the board, the higher you rank on the leaderboard for that difficulty.

Frequently asked questions

Can I lose on the first click?
No. Mines are only placed after your first tap, and the square you tapped (plus its neighbors) is kept mine-free whenever possible, so the game always opens with a fair start.
How do I place flags on a phone?
Turn on Flag mode with the 🚩 button — while it is on, every tap plants or removes a flag instead of revealing. On most phones a long-press also works, and on a computer you can simply right-click.
Does guessing ever become necessary?
Occasionally, yes — classic minesweeper boards are random, so late-game 50/50 situations can appear. Good players minimize guesses by working the border numbers first and flagging certain mines before opening uncertain areas.
