How do I know where the mines are?
You must rely on the numbered squares to deduce mine locations. A number indicates the total amount of mines in its 8 surrounding tiles. For example, a '1' sticking out in a corner means the only covered tile next to it MUST be a mine. If a number's value equals the number of covered tiles touching it, all of those covered tiles are guaranteed mines.
I'm forced to guess and I'm stuck. Is there a way out?
You can click the Lightbulb icon to watch a short ad; it will automatically flag one hidden mine for you! If you do happen to guess wrong and explode, you can also watch an ad to revive and undo that fatal mistake!
Is this game just luck? What are the tricks?
Aside from very rare 50/50 situations, the game requires absolutely no luck—it is 100% logic-based!
-
Basic Rule: If the number of covered squares touching a number equals the number itself, flag all of them!
-
Safe Clearance: If a number is 'touching' the exact correct amount of flags, every other covered tile touching that number is 100% safe to open.
-
Advanced Patterns: Learn classic number patterns! For example, a straight wall of '1-2-1' means the mines are on the 1s. '1-2-2-1' means the mines are on the 2s. Recognizing these instantly cracks the board open.
