How to play Mine Sweep
- Uncover a square with A. The first square is always safe.
- A number shows how many of the eight squares around it hide a mine.
- Mark mines with B. When a number has all its mines flagged, press A on it to open the rest around it.
- Uncover every safe square to win. Your score is your time: lower is better.
Controls
D-pad to move, A to uncover, B to place a flag. A on a number opens its neighbors when the flags match.
- Keyboard: arrow keys or WASD, Z or Space for A, X for B, Enter to pause.

- Game controller: D-pad or left stick, A and B buttons, Start to pause.
Tips
- Start from the corners of open areas, where the numbers are low.
- A 1 that touches only one hidden square means that square is a mine.
