Minesweeper — Classic Puzzle

```

```

Minesweeper, clean and quiet. Tap to clear tiles, read the numbers, flag the mines, finish the board. No ads, no sign-in, no internet permission at all — the whole game lives on your phone.

Five hand-tuned levels take you from a gentle 6x6 warm-up to a 14x14 board packed with 45 mines. Each level tracks its own best score and star rating, so there is always a run worth beating.

LEVELS

• Starter — 6x6, 5 mines, 3 hints

• Beginner — 8x8, 10 mines, 3 hints

• Skilled — 10x10, 18 mines, 2 hints

• Expert — 12x12, 30 mines, 2 hints

• Master — 14x14, 45 mines, 1 hint

HOW IT PLAYS

• Your first tap is always safe — no guessing on move one, and no instant losses.

• Tap an empty tile and the whole safe region opens at once.

• Long-press to plant a flag, or switch to Flag mode and tap normally — whichever your thumb prefers.

• Tap an already-open number with the right count of flags around it to clear all its neighbours in one move (chording, for when you want speed).

• Stuck? Spend a hint to open the safest remaining tile. Hints are limited per level and cost a few points, so use them well.

SCORING AND STARS

Clearing tiles in a row builds a streak multiplier, so confident play scores higher than cautious play. Finishing with time left on the clock adds a bonus. Earn up to three stars per level: one for the win, one for a clean and efficient board with no hints, one for finishing quickly. Your best score and best star count are saved for every level.

TIMED OR RELAXED

Every level has a countdown, and the bar turns red in the last fifteen seconds. Not in the mood? Turn on Relaxed mode from Options and the clock disappears entirely — solve at your own pace, with separate best scores kept for relaxed runs.

FIVE THEMES

Classic, Ocean, Midnight, Bloom and Black. Two of them are true dark themes for late-night play, and Black is a pure-black theme that is easy on OLED screens. The theme colours the whole app, status bar included.

BUILT TO FEEL GOOD

Tiles pop when they open, flags spring into place, a wrong tap shakes the board, and a win throws confetti. Subtle haptics on every tap, plus optional tones you can switch off. Everything is drawn on a single canvas, so it stays smooth even on older phones.

NEVER LOSE A BOARD

Leave mid-game — a call, a notification, a closed app — and your board, flags, score and remaining time come back exactly as you left them.

STATS

Games played, wins, losses, win rate, and your best score on the current level, all in one tap.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

No internet permission. No ads. No accounts. No analytics. Nothing to collect, because nothing leaves your device. The download is tiny and the app works fully offline, on a plane, in the underground, anywhere.

Whether you have played minesweeper for thirty years or are learning what the numbers mean today, this is the version that gets out of your way and just lets you sweep.
