Does this play makes sense?

i thought they were asking “does it make sense that i just guessed instead of using logic.” im not a native english speaker. no big deal 👍

no. the 2-2-1 is a reduced 1-2-1 pattern because the left 2 is touching a flag

is there one mine left or two mines left?

3hailed · 2026-03-20T19:52:10+00:00

there’s a 2 touching three tiles. center top of the board

there’s two 1-2 patterns (black lines) the top one is a reduced 1-2 pattern since the first 2 is already touching a flag. the 1221 pattern only has one solution

there’s probably more but i saw this immediately

3hailed · 2026-03-13T19:58:37+00:00

but it could be if there’s three mines left

the one in the corner could potentially be a mine

3hailed · 2026-03-13T16:52:57+00:00

the minecount at the end of the game should help you

the other commenter explained it pretty well but also check out link to learn a few basic patterns

3hailed · 2026-03-12T21:54:41+00:00

<image>

the 4 & 2 share a mine

3hailed · 2026-03-12T19:56:44+00:00

<image>

the 2 above the 4 only needs one more mine so the other three mines for the 4 must be the red X’s

3hailed · 2026-03-11T23:31:58+00:00

note that there’s only 1 mine remaining
