Minesweeper 98 is a retro puzzle game inspired by the classic mine-detecting challenge. The game places you inside a fake Windows 98-style desktop, complete with a taskbar, old icons, a timer, hearts, a shop, and strange extra features. Behind that funny interface, the main challenge is still about logic. Open safe tiles, read the numbers carefully, and avoid hidden mines to survive on the board.
OPEN TILES AND READ THE NUMBERS
Minesweeper 98 starts with a large grid full of hidden tiles. Some tiles are safe, while others hide dangerous mines. Your mission is to open safe tiles and use the numbers on the board to predict where mines are located. A number tells you how many mines are touching that tile from the surrounding eight positions. But be careful! Clicking the wrong tile can trigger a mine, so every move needs careful thinking.
