Is Minesweeper just luck?

What does a flag do?

It marks a suspected mine and prevents accidental clicks. It also helps you count adjacent mines.

Can I lose on the first click?

Most modern versions guarantee the first click is safe, often clearing a large area.

What is the difference between beginner and expert?

Grid size and mine density increase. Expert boards require deeper pattern recognition.

How do I improve my time?

Learn common patterns, use both mouse buttons efficiently, and avoid unnecessary flags.
