Goal

Reveal every safe tile without hitting a hazard.

Numbers

Revealed numbers show how many hazards touch that tile (including diagonals).

  • A “1” means one hazard is adjacent.
  • A “2” means two hazards are adjacent, and so on.

Markers

Mark tiles you believe contain hazards. Markers help you avoid accidental taps and keep track of counts.

Chords

If a revealed number has the same count of markers around it, you can chord to reveal the remaining neighbors in one move.
