BlastBeacon

Step inside Minesweeper

You stand on the board. Numbers glow in the darkness, and any block you swing your pickaxe at could be your last.

The rules

• Each number shows how many bombs are in the 8 tiles around it.
  
• Dig up a bomb, and it's game over.
  
• Think it's a bomb? Flag it.
  
• Clear every block that isn't a bomb to win.

No guessing

Every Classic difficulty preset is built to be solved with pure logic. No 50/50 guesses at the end.

Your own map

Pull up a hand-drawn map. Every block you dig is marked for you, but the numbers and bombs are yours to note down.

Treasure mode

Find three stone tablet shards guarded by bombs and place them on the pedestal. Uncover a 0 and your compass lights up toward the nearest shard. A crystal shield can stop one bomb… but the blast still spreads.

Hardcore and time attack

In Hardcore, every flag is final. Your clear time and blocks dug are shown on the results screen.

Comfort settings

• Play with keyboard and mouse or a controller.
  
• Turn screen shake down to 0% if you're prone to motion sickness. Mouse sensitivity is adjustable too.

Streamers and video creators welcome

Stream it, make videos, monetize them — no need to ask us first. We'd love to see how you read the glowing numbers and where you decide to dig.
