About Cyber Sweeper

Cyber Sweeper brings the peerless logic-deduction puzzle of Windows Minesweeper into a luminous cybernetic HUD. Featuring a guaranteed safe first click (mines are seeded only after your opening selection) and instant flood-fill cascades, Cyber Sweeper eliminates frustrating opening losses so you can focus on pure tactical deduction.


How to Play & Logic Rules

  • Left-Click (Desktop) or Tap in Reveal Mode (Mobile): Uncovers a grid cell.
    • If the cell touches zero mines, it automatically reveals an expanding perimeter of neighboring safe nodes.
    • If the cell touches mines, it reveals a glowing color-coded number indicating exactly how many of the 8 adjacent neighboring squares contain active mines.
  • Right-Click (Desktop) or Tap with Flag Mode Active (Mobile): Plants a warning beacon (🚩) on suspected mine locations.
  • Winning Condition: Safely expose all non-mine nodes across the 9x9 matrix without detonating any quantum explosives!

Expert Deduction Techniques

  • The Classic 1-1 Pattern: When two “1” clues share the same contiguous border of unrevealed cells, the cell furthest from the boundary is mathematically guaranteed to be safe.
  • The 1-2-1 Pattern: A common sequence where the mines are invariably located beneath the two outer “1”s, making the node beneath the central “2” safe to open.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Can I accidentally hit a mine on my very first click?

No! Cyber Sweeper is coded with guaranteed first-click immunity. The minefield generation algorithm runs only after your first click, ensuring your opening choice is always completely safe.
