OFFICIAL MINESWEEPER RULES:
The goal of this strategy puzzle is simple: clear the entire grid without clicking on a hidden mine.
• Numbers Are Clues: Uncovered cells display numbers indicating how many mines are hidden in the 8 surrounding squares. For example, a "3" means exactly three neighboring cells contain bombs.
• Auto-Clear: Empty cells with no neighboring mines automatically reveal adjacent safe squares to speed up your logic strategy.
• Game Over: Uncovering a mine triggers an explosion and ends the game.
• Use Flags: Place a marker on suspected cells to secure the board and help you safely deduce the remaining hidden mines.

Track your improvement over time with the integrated Local Records & Statistics System to see how fast you can clear the field.
