Minesweeper guide
About Minesweeper
Each attempt in Minesweeper gives clear feedback on score chasing and repeatable fundamentals. To play Minesweeper, compare the numbered clues around unopened cells and clear a square only when the mine pattern is logically safe. Avoid changing several inputs together in Minesweeper; compare the board before and after each move rather than changing several pieces at once.
A useful first run in Minesweeper is about seeing the effect of score chasing before increasing the pace. Before committing a limited move, check whether the remaining pieces still have a legal route to their targets. Repeat the same setup in Minesweeper once before deciding the correction failed.
