About Minesweeper: One-Hand Puzzle
Minesweeper is the timeless mine-finding puzzle, rebuilt to play comfortably on a modern phone. The rules are simple: open every tile that is not a mine to win, and avoid opening a mine. When you open a tile, it may show a number - that number is how many mines are hidden in the 8 tiles around it. Using only these numbers, you reason out which tiles are safe and which are dangerous, opening the board one tile at a time. It is a deep logic puzzle solved by reasoning, not luck. Perfect for a quick break or a long, focused session - on your commute, on a break, or before bed. [ Three difficulties ] - Beginner: 9x9 with 10 mines. Great for learning the ropes or a quick game. - Intermediate: 16x16 with 40 mines. A satisfying, balanced challenge. - Expert: 16x30 with 99 mines. A full-size board for confident players. Your best time is saved for each difficulty, so you can keep chasing a faster record. [ Unique feature 1: One-handed Flag Mode ] Normally you tap to open and long-press to flag. Turn on the Flag Mode switch at the top of the board and you can flag with a single tap - no long-press needed. Play comfortably with one hand, even holding a strap on the train. Switch it off to open quickly. [ Unique feature 2: Pinch zoom and pan ] Even on the large Expert board, pinch with two fingers to zoom and drag with one finger to move around. No more mis-taps on tiny tiles - hit exactly the tile you mean. Double-tap to reset the view. [ Your first tap is always safe ] A mine is never placed on the tile you open first. When there is room, mines avoid the surrounding tiles too, so you start with a nice opening. No more instant game-overs on the first move. [ Built to feel good ] - Remaining mine count and a timer are always visible. - Tap the face button any time to start fresh; its expression changes with the game. - Tap an opened number to clear its remaining neighbors at once when the flags match (chord). - Empty areas open in a chain automatically. - Distinct haptic feedback for opening, flagging, clearing, and game over. [ Fully offline ] This app needs no internet connection at all. It never talks to any server and runs entirely on your device. Play in airplane mode or anywhere with no signal. [ Privacy first ] No personal information or play history is ever sent anywhere. Records such as best times stay only on your device. Simple, yet endlessly deep. The king of logic puzzles, in the palm of your hand. Open your first tile and begin.
What’s new
Version 1.1.0 · Updated July 22, 2026
This update adds ads to help keep the app free. - A banner appears below the board, and a full-screen ad shows once every few clears or game-overs. - On first launch, iOS asks whether the app may track you (App Tracking Transparency). If you decline, you still play with non-personalized ads. Thanks for playing! If you enjoy Minesweeper, a review really helps.
