How to play Daily Minesweeper
Daily Minesweeper is the classic logic puzzle, refreshed. Reveal safe squares, flag the mines, and clear the board in today's shared daily grid or practice modes.
How to play
Tap to reveal a square
Tap any covered cell to reveal it. The number shown is how many mines touch that cell.
Use the numbers as clues
If a cell shows 1 and only one of its neighbors is still covered, that neighbor is a mine.
Flag suspected mines
Switch on flag mode (or long-press) to mark cells you believe contain mines so you don't tap them by mistake.
Chain through empty areas
Revealing a 0 cell automatically opens its neighbors, often clearing huge sections at once.
Clear every safe square
Reveal every cell that isn't a mine to win. Hitting a mine ends the run.
Tips
- Always start in a corner or a wide-open area. Your first click is guaranteed safe.
- When a number equals the flags already touching it, every other neighbor is safe.
- Practice with the easier difficulty before tackling the harder daily grid.
- Use hints sparingly: they cost you on the score and break your no-hint streak.
