How do I play Minesweeper?
Left click any tile to reveal it. If it is a mine you lose, otherwise it shows a number indicating how many mines touch it. A blank tile means zero, and the board automatically opens up the connected blank area. Right click a tile to flag it as a suspected mine. You win when every safe tile has been revealed.
What do the difficulty levels offer?
Beginner is a 9x9 grid with 10 mines and is ideal for learning the rules. Intermediate is 16x16 with 40 mines and demands solid pattern recognition. Expert is 16x30 with 99 mines and is the classic Windows challenge. Choose your level from the menu before starting, because changing difficulty mid-game resets the board completely.
How do I flag mines on touch devices?
On a phone or tablet, a long press on a tile flags it instead of revealing it. A short tap reveals the tile as normal. There is also a flag mode toggle button which swaps the meaning of single taps, which helps when you need to flag many tiles in a row without holding each one down.
What strategies should I learn first?
Memorise the basic 1 and 2 patterns along edges, where the count tells you exactly which neighbouring tile is a mine. Always flag a mine the moment you can prove it, because the surrounding numbers then guide the rest of your moves. When you are stuck, look for forced moves before guessing, and only guess on tiles touching the fewest unknowns.
Is the timer saved as a best score?
Yes. The fastest completion time for each difficulty is stored in your browser's local storage and shown alongside the active timer. Clearing browser data resets all three best times. Note that the timer only stops when every safe tile is revealed, so flagging the final mines without uncovering tiles will not end the round.
Can the first click ever be a mine?
No. The board generates after your first click and guarantees that the tile you opened is safe and usually has no neighbouring mines either, which gives you a small starting region to work from. This rule means you should always click somewhere central rather than a corner, because a bigger opening reveals more useful number clues.
