RULES OF THE HIDDEN GRID
Each puzzle in Minesweeper begins with a blank grid of closed squares. Some squares contain mines, and the rest are either safe or marked with helpful numbers. A number indicates how many surrounding squares hide mines, creating logical clues for your next decision. An empty square shows that no nearby mines exist and automatically reveals adjacent spaces. The game continues until every safe square is revealed or a mine is triggered. Victory comes when all non-mine squares are uncovered successfully.
Control Options
Mouse users enjoy a simple control system with left and right clicks performing all major actions in a familiar way. Keyboard shortcuts are unnecessary because the mouse offers speed and accuracy. On mobile devices, the system works differently by replacing right clicks with long presses. Holding down on a square brings up marking options that cycle between flag, question mark, and clear. A quick tap always reveals the chosen square, just like a standard mouse click. This adaptation makes the game fully accessible on touch screens without losing the original depth.
