Puzzle Emulator verified v1.0.0 18.1 KB
The JAR and JAD are the Original Java ME Version for phones and emulators. How to install.
About
The logic classic for a keypad: move with 2/4/6/8 (or diagonally with 1/3/7/9), open with 5 and flag with 0 or #. The first square is always safe, opened numbers can be chorded, and boards larger than the screen scroll with the cursor so even the 16x16 field works on a 128x128 display.
Objective: Open every square that does not contain a mine, as fast as you can.
Modes: Easy 8x8, Medium 12x12, Hard 16x16
