How to play
Goal
Uncover every safe tile, collecting letters to make words.
- What do the letters and numbers mean?
- Connect adjacent revealed letters, including diagonals. Small numbers count mines in all eight neighboring spaces.
- How do I mark a mine?
- Right-click, long-press, press F, or use touch long-press. Remove a flag before an ordinary dig.
- How do words score?
- Select a path of adjacent unused board letters, including diagonals. Four or more letters make a word, with more points for longer words. A word can be used once per round.
- How do I earn extra hearts?
- Accepted words earn 1 heart for 4–5 letters, 2 for 6–7, or 3 for 8+. Mines cost one heart. Hearts can rise above the starting three.
- When does the round end?
- Open all 48 safe tiles, spell remaining words, then choose Finish. Zero hearts ends an incomplete round.
