Minesweeper

🎮 How to Play

Minesweeper is a classic logic puzzle where you uncover tiles on a grid while avoiding hidden mines. Start by clicking any tile—if it’s safe, a number appears, indicating how many mines are adjacent to it. Use these clues to deduce where mines are hidden. Right-click to flag suspected mines and left-click to reveal safe tiles. The goal is to clear the entire board without detonating any mines. For beginners, start with smaller grids to master the basics before tackling larger, more challenging boards!

🕹️ Controls

• Left-click (or tap on mobile): Reveal a tile.
• Right-click (or long-press on mobile): Place or remove a flag to mark potential mines.
• Middle-click (or double-tap on flagged tiles): Quickly reveal surrounding tiles if the correct number of flags are placed.
• Keyboard shortcuts (desktop): Press F to flag tiles or use arrow keys for navigation on some versions.

🎯 Objectives

Your primary goal is to clear all non-mine tiles without triggering any explosions. Short-term, focus on interpreting numbered clues to identify safe moves. Long-term, aim for faster completion times or higher difficulty levels. Success hinges on logical deduction—each number reveals critical info about nearby mines. Master pattern recognition and risk assessment to dominate the leaderboard or beat your personal best!

💡 Pro Tips

• Start with corners and edges: These often provide clearer clues for beginners.
• Use the “1-2-1” pattern: If two 1s are separated by a 2, the mines are likely under the 1s.
• Flag conservatively: Only mark tiles you’re certain about to avoid confusion.
• Practice speed runs: Challenge yourself with timed games to sharpen decision-making.
• Look for guaranteed safe moves: If a tile’s number matches adjacent flags, all remaining adjacent tiles are safe.
• Stay calm near the end: Use process of elimination for the last few tiles—no guessing needed!

With these strategies, you’ll transform from a cautious beginner to a Minesweeper master. Happy sweeping! 🚩💣
