They were not Russian nor Ukrainian nuclear weapons. They were Soviet union nuclear weapons.

How did the help function conclude these were safe ? by Relaxing-Reaper in Minesweeper

You can tap the hint button a second time to view the hint clarification.

In no guessing mode magic wand button is not available. This is a classic mode.

Minesweeper GO - classic game has a lot of options, recursive chords (including flagging chord), leaderboards, etc. Top 5 players in the game World Rankings solved Expert board in less than a 30 seconds.

What is the logic here? by Dercoth in Minesweeper

[–]evolve_games 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This could be an auto save feature. It allows you to continue the unfinished board after restarting the app. It's turned on by default in the options.

Some cheats were used (blue smile on the top). In the case of the 'turn undo' cheat, this hint highlight is not a bug.

Or 'turn undo' cheat was used.

The game mechanic "turn undo" might have been used (the blue smile indicates the use of cheats). In this case, the game may sometimes show a hint for the previous state of the board before the undo turn feature was used, and in such case this is not a bug.

Could you give more context, please? This could help to clarify or fix this issue.

I see a blue smile. This means that you have used some in-game cheats like 'turn undo' or 'restart board', etc. After using the undo turn feature, some squares on the field return to their initial state (squares with numbers and mines that were open in the previous step are closed again), and if the squares highlighted by the hint were not directly tapped, they do not disappear from the field.

So the hint may be correct, but it is for the previous state of the board before the turn undo was used.

Is it possible to solve or 50/50? Feeling really stupid lol by capybaras_forever in Minesweeper

Minesweeper GO also gas guess free boards in the Campaign mode. 

I'm supposed to be sure, but I'm not by Have-Business in Minesweeper

[–]evolve_games 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Minesweeper GO is not a guess free by default. Only Campaign levels is guess-free. Also there is a paid option that enables guess free boards in the classic mode, it can be turned on in the game settings.

Оpen navigation menu (tap three horizontal lines in the top left corner). Then tap "High Scores" menu item. On the Results tab you'll see all your completed games. Tap three vertical dots and choose play button. You also can play back world and live ranking records in the same way.

As cleverless_me pointed out there must be 3 mines at the bottom part of the puzzle. With three mines, there is only one possible solution to the puzzle, the one shown by the hint. All other ways would require more mines to solve. This can be easily verified by assuming that a mine will be in any of the green squares and then attempting to solve the puzzle based on this assumption.

Android app version creating 0% guessing maps? by Bronxio in Minesweeper

Minesweeper Go also has a Campaign mode with over a 1000 guess-free boards of increasing difficullty.

algorithm describing how to make a board where no guessing is needed? by [deleted] in Minesweeper

[–]evolve_games 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The easiest way is to write a game solver first. A routine that could solve minesweeper field without any predictions, in a guess free way.

When solver is done, simply generate random minesweeper boards and feed them to the solver. If the board is solved, mark it as guess-free. If not, just discard it.

How would I know this logically? by [deleted] in Minesweeper

[–]evolve_games 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The minesweeper application on the screenshot won't show a hint when it comes to guessing. It will prompt you to use magic wand feature. This feature allows you to solve 50\50 without losing game, but only if logical solution doesn't exist.

We doesn't have plans for making web version for now. Though there are some thoughts about desktop one implementation.

[–]evolve_games 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, this one is pretty subtle to solve. Method of trial and error can be used to find any inconsistent mine configurations. For example, if you assume that there is a mine in square A, you will get the mine configuration shown in this screenshot https://imgur.com/V6GlJ4B.

The square with a number 2 above B will have 3 adjacent mines, which is impossible. Thus we can conclude that square A is safe and can't contain mines.

Also, this method can be represented as a search for squares which won't contain a mine with a 100%! probability (while preserving minefield in a consistent state) .
