Reverse Minesweeper

Reverse Minesweeper – Game Overview

Reverse Minesweeper flips the classic formula on its head! Instead of uncovering hidden mines, all bombs are already revealed on the board. Your challenge: strategically place number tiles so that each one matches the count of mines in its eight surrounding cells. Use logic, deduction, and a bit of creative thinking to solve each puzzle and fill the board correctly.

Game Features

• Visible Mines: No surprises! All mine locations are shown at the start of the game.
• Number Tile Pool: Drag and drop number tiles (1–8) onto empty cells, matching classic Minesweeper clues.
• Hints: Stuck? Use a limited number of hints to auto-place a correct number tile.
• Error Feedback: Incorrect placements flash red and return the tile to your pool, encouraging careful thinking.
• Progress Tracking: Moves and hints are tracked so you can challenge yourself to improve each game.
• Replayable Puzzles: Each round offers a new board with different mine placements and number distributions.

How to Play

1. Review the board with all mines already visible.
2. Drag a number tile from the pool and drop it on an empty cell.
3. The number must equal the total mines in the eight adjacent cells.
4. If correct, the tile locks in. If incorrect, it flashes red and returns to your pool.
5. Use hints if you get stuck. Try to fill every non-mine cell for a perfect win!
