Minesweeper Buddy

Minesweeper Buddy is the classic game with one promise: you will never have to guess. Every board is checked by a solver before it reaches you, so every mine can be found by reasoning, and Bolty, your lightning-bolt buddy, reacts to every move.

NEVER A GUESS
• 5,000 boards, 1,000 at each of five sizes: 9×9 with 10 mines up to the classic 16×30 with 99.
• Each level is graded by the techniques it needs, from simple counting to 1-2-1 patterns and case analysis.
• Three lives: a wrong tap shows the mine and costs 30 seconds, and the game ends on the third.
• Stuck? A hint shows the next safe move and names the technique behind it.

A NEW BOARD EVERY DAY
• The Daily Challenge is the same board for everyone, everywhere, ramping up from Easy on Monday to Master on Sunday.
• Build a streak, and catch up on any day you missed from the calendar.
• See how today compares with your personal best, your usual time and your trend at every level.

PLAY WITH FRIENDS
• Buddy Duel: race a friend live on the identical board and watch their progress.
• Practice against Bolty Bot, even offline.
• Send a "beat my time" challenge over Messages: no account, the board travels in the link.
• Game Center leaderboards for every level, the daily and the week, plus 23 trophies.

MADE WITH CARE
• Tap to open, long-press to flag.
• Time Attack mode when you want a sprint, and 3BV stats for the purists.
• Board themes, dark mode, large text, VoiceOver and a full iPad layout.
• Free to play, with occasional ads that never interrupt a board. One purchase removes them for good — in this game, or in every Buddy game at once with the Thunder Buddy Pass.
• No account needed.
