Minesweeper
Classic Minesweeper with a no-guess mode and detailed stats
Free browser Minesweeper with Beginner, Intermediate, Expert and custom boards, an optional no-guess mode, hints and per-board statistics.
Features
No-guess mode
Start from the marked cell and every step can be deduced from the numbers, with no forced 50/50.
Hints that teach
A hint reveals a cell that is provably safe, or shows the odds when no safe cell exists.
Times and stats
Best times, 3BV/s, efficiency, win rate and streaks are tracked for every board size.
Built for touch
Tap to open, hold to flag, or use the floating dig and flag button, with adjustable hold time.

About the game
Minesweeper is a logic game played on a grid of hidden cells. Opening a cell reveals either a mine, which ends the game, or a number showing how many of its eight neighbours contain mines. Players use those numbers to flag every mine and open every safe cell. The site offers the three standard boards, Beginner (9 × 9, 10 mines), Intermediate (16 × 16, 40 mines) and Expert (30 × 16, 99 mines), plus custom boards with your own size and mine count.
It is meant both for people who want a quick, familiar game and for players who track their times and efficiency.
What we built
The main addition is an optional no-guess mode. Seriauth’s generator builds boards that can be solved from a marked starting cell by deduction alone, so a game is never decided by a coin flip at the end. In classic mode, the first click is always safe.
Hints come from the same solving logic: a hint points to a cell that is certain to be safe, or, when none exists, shows the odds instead. Statistics are kept per board size, including best time, 3BV per second, efficiency and win streaks.
Controls are configurable. On desktop, chording opens all neighbours of a satisfied number, and keyboard keys can stand in for mouse buttons. On touch screens, players can hold to flag or switch modes with a floating button whose position and size can be changed. Games in progress are saved automatically, light and dark themes are available, and the interface comes in 11 languages. The site installs as a progressive web app.
FAQ
What is no-guess mode?
The board marks a starting cell. If you start there, every step can be worked out from the numbers, so you never face a pure coin flip.
Can my first click hit a mine?
No. In classic mode the first click is always safe. In no-guess mode, begin from the marked cell.
Will I lose a game if I close the page?
No. A game in progress is saved in your browser, and you can resume it from the lobby with Continue.
Are my stats saved to an account?
There is no account. Stats and settings are stored in your browser only.
