How to play Minesweeper

Reveal every safe square while using numbered clues to avoid the hidden mines.

Start playing

  1. Left-click or tap to reveal a square; a number tells you how many mines touch it.
  2. Right-click or long-press to flag a square you have logically identified as a mine.
  3. Combine overlapping number clues until every non-mine square is open.

Minesweeper strategy tips

  • If a number already touches that many flags, every other covered neighbor is safe.
  • If a number has exactly as many covered neighbors as unmarked mines remaining, flag them all.
  • Work from exposed boundaries and compare adjacent clues instead of guessing isolated squares.
