Minesweeper

Minesweeper is a classic puzzle game that has been a staple of computers for decades. The objective is simple: uncover all the safe tiles on a grid without hitting any hidden mines. Each tile you uncover will reveal a number indicating how many mines are adjacent to that tile.

This browser-based version lets you play Minesweeper directly in your web browser. Use logic and deduction to determine which tiles are safe to uncover and which ones might contain mines. Flag tiles you suspect contain mines to avoid accidentally clicking on them!

• Start the game: Click "New Game" or simply start playing to begin.
• Uncover tiles: Left-click on any tile to uncover it. If it's safe, you'll see a number or empty space.
• Read numbers: Numbers indicate how many mines are adjacent to that tile. Use these to deduce which tiles are safe.
• Flag mines: Right-click on a tile to flag it as a suspected mine. This helps you keep track of dangerous tiles.
• Avoid mines: If you uncover a mine, the game is over! All mines will be revealed.
• Win the game: Uncover all non-mine tiles to win!
• Play again: Click "New Game" to reset and play again!

• Start in corners: The corners of the board are statistically safer to uncover first.
• Use deduction: If a tile shows "1" and you've flagged one adjacent mine, all other adjacent tiles are safe.
• Look for patterns: The "1-2-1" pattern often indicates a row of mines, while "1-1" between two numbers means those squares are safe.
• Flag systematically: Right-click to mark suspected mines - this helps you keep track and avoid clicking them accidentally.
• Don't rush: Take your time to analyze the numbers before making moves. Hasty decisions lead to mistakes!
