About This Game

Minesweeper is a classic logic-based puzzle game that challenges players to uncover all the safe squares on a grid while avoiding hidden mines. The game requires strategic thinking and pattern recognition, making it a favorite for those who enjoy brain teasers and problem-solving. It has been a staple on many operating systems, particularly Windows, since the early 1990s.

The game is played on a grid of squares, and hidden beneath certain squares are mines. The objective is to clear all squares without detonating a mine.

Players left-click to reveal squares, and if a square contains a number, it indicates how many mines are adjacent to that square including diagonals.

Players right-click to place flags on squares where they suspect a mine is hidden, marking those spots as dangerous.
