About Probability Minesweeper
Probability Minesweeper strips the classic away from installers and launchers: open the page, click a square and the board generates itself around your opening move.
When logic runs out, choosing the lowest-probability square is a skill of its own. The rules have not changed since the original. Every revealed square either opens into empty space or shows a number, and that number is the exact count of mines touching it across all eight neighbouring squares.
On a desktop, left-click digs and right-click plants a flag. On a phone or tablet, the Dig and Flag toggle at the top of the dashboard swaps between the two, so touch players get exactly the same control precision as mouse players.
Your very first click is always safe. The mine layout is generated after you dig, and the algorithm keeps your opening square and its immediate neighbours clear, so no session ever ends before it has properly begun. Under the hood it is plain modern web technology: React for state, Tailwind for the neon styling, and oscillator-based Web Audio for the ticks, flag clicks, win chime and explosion. There is no plugin, no installer and no account.
When a board beats you, hit reset and a brand new arrangement appears instantly. Improvement here is measurable: the timer never lies. Whether you are here for a quick distraction or a serious attempt at a personal best, the board is ready the moment the page finishes loading, and it costs nothing to try again.
