Minesweepers is Plato's multiplayer version of the classic Minesweeper game, which is normally a single-player game.
Object of the Game
Minesweepers is played with 2 to 4 players. The object of the game is to clear as many tiles as possible while trying to avoid the mines.
The game ends when all the mines have been discovered. The player with the most points at the end wins the game (see Scoring below).
Playing Together
The game is played in 30-second turns, with each turn being shared by all players.
When a player has tapped on a tile, they must wait for all other players to finish their selections.
After all players have selected their tiles (or if the 30 seconds timer is up), the turn ends and the selected tiles are revealed:
Note - It's possible for players to end up selecting the same tile:
Scoring
A regular "safe" tile is worth 6 points. If more than 1 player chose the same tile, the 6 points are shared with those players.
If a player uncovers a tile with a mine, they will be deducted 12 points.
Each time a player misses a turn, they will be deducted 3 points.
Numbers
The numbers on each tile represent the number of mines that are adjacent (left, right, up, down, and one at each corner) to those tiles.
In the below example, Tile A has the number 1 which means a mine could be in 1 of the tiles with the red spots:
In another example below, Tile B has the number 2, which means the mines could be in 2 of the tiles with the red spots:
Using Flags
If a player thinks there's a mine in a tile, they can tap and hold on that tile to plant a flag on it.
If that tile turns out to be a mine, the player will earn 10 points and will replace the mine with a flag:
If more than 1 player correctly flagged a mine, they will share the 10 points.
