Minesweeper Tips

Strategies to play smarter and score higher

  • Start with a corner or edge click to maximize the chance of a large opening.
  • A 1 touching exactly one unrevealed cell means that cell is a mine.
  • If a number equals the count of adjacent flags, all other adjacent cells are safe.
  • Never guess unless every logical option is exhausted.
  • Look for patterns: 1-2-1 along a wall often marks the cell above the 2.
  • Practice on intermediate boards before tackling expert.
