# Minesweeper Now

Minesweeper Now makes a familiar game feel thoughtfully finished. Its strength is the combination of classic Minesweeper gameplay, a clean modern interface, personal style, and the convenience of picking up where you left off. It is a compelling choice for players who want both the nostalgia of a classic board and the comfort of a modern browser game.

- Design and themes: choose Classic, Porcelain, Forest, Terracotta, Blueprint, Graphite. Classic preserves the familiar retro board; the modern themes offer distinct colors and tile treatments. Light and dark appearance options and adjustable tile sizes let players tailor the experience.
- Shared boards: export a versioned board code containing the classic seed, board settings, and first reveal. Import a code or challenge link to start a fresh attempt on the identical layout. Numeric seeds use the current board settings and a center opening.
- Classic play: Beginner, Intermediate, Expert, and custom boards, with a safe first click, flags, and automatic opening of empty regions. Boards follow classic rules and may require guessing.
- Daily challenge: a shared daily Intermediate board changes at midnight UTC, with streak tracking and shareable results.
- Infinite Mines: explore an expanding board with three lives, five mine-density levels, scoring, pan, and zoom.
- Saving and sign-in: guest progress is saved in the current browser and resumes after reload. Optional Google sign-in syncs classic, daily, and custom saved games and statistics to an account for play across devices. Infinite runs and preferences remain browser-local.
- Useful extras: guided practice, recent-game replays, statistics and best times, keyboard controls, and touch controls with hold-to-flag and pinch-to-zoom.
- Free browser play: no download or account is required to start playing.
