How to improve at Minesweeper

Minesweeper is a deduction game where every revealed number describes the mines touching that square. Use confirmed safe spaces and confirmed mine locations to expand the board without guessing. A flag is a planning aid, so place one only when the surrounding clues support it.

Strategy tips

  • If a clue already touches its full number of flags, its other neighbors are safe.
  • If every hidden neighbor of a clue must be a mine, flag them before continuing.
  • Work along open borders where several clues overlap and provide more information.
