Description

Privacy Friendly Minesweeper is a moblie version of the classic game Minesweeper. The goal of the game is to find and mark every mine without triggering one of them.

You reveal a field by clicking on it. If that field contains a mine it is triggered and the game is lost. Otherwise the field will show a number. That number will tell you the amount of mines in the surreounding 8 fields. With that information and logical thinking the mines can be located and marked.

The first field you click each game will not ba a mine. Each game will have a new playing field with randomzed poisitioning of mines, so each game will be a new experience. While the mines are mostly positioned randomly the first field clicked each game will not have a mine, and four or more mines in adjacent fields will be avoided, since such clusters increase the chance of situations that must me solved by guessing.

There are three different gamemodes represinting three difficulties. They differ in playing field size and the amount of mines:

- 6x10 Playing Field with 7 Mines
- 10x16 Playing Field with 24 Mines
- 12x19 Playing Field with 46 Mines
In addition there is the option to create your own gamemode where the size of the playing field (amount of rows and columns) and the proportion of mines (easy / medium / hard).

Up to 10 games can be saved and later continued. Your Performance for the three basic gamemodes is collected and analyzed and can be viewed at the statistic page. There you can check the number of games played, the ratio of won games, the average time of winning mgaes, the number of revealed fields and the 10 best times for each gamemode.

The help page contains information about the app and the rules of the game.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

3 ★Great game, No spying chaupo, No permissions. Sources available yet has few things to wish for1. Times exidently press button next to intendent2. No step back3. After failure.message covers board so cannot analyze mistake4. After failure doesn't revile bomb locations, what could be useful for analyzes.5. Games in progress, keeps lots of failed or finished games what i find useless<> 6. On s7 edge. Displays lower row halve way
5 ★Quality. Exactly minesweeper but no worries of permission jacking. Theres one bug with continuing a game where you havent clicked anything. Makes the continued game inaccessible and unable to be deleted from the 10 saved games. Fixed it with deleting app data.
3 ★Unlike some minesweeper clones, i didn't have lag playing this game. Sadly it cannot be moved to SD despite not requiring permissions. The game is silent; a loud explosion sound when uncovering a bomb would make the game more thrilling (I can always mute android volume). I haven't yet found a mobile clone that does this properly besides microsoft's own minesweeper (PC). Also, tapping a button to switch between flag/uncover is slow, it could be improved with gestures e.g. long-tap.
5 ★It's basic Minesweeper with no ads or unnecessary permissions. It has 3 difficulty settings. Each setting increases the number of squares & mines.
4 ★good game with no ads. but the numbers should be bigger and perhaps colour scheme changed as text is hard to read
4 ★Better if I could remove saved games. Can't play them so why are they being saved?
1 ★this app should be deleted from store
