Questions
About Minesweeper.
What is the goal of Minesweeper?
Open every square that is not a mine.
Is Minesweeper free?
Yes. Minesweeper is one of 48 games in PlayBurst, a single free app. It is free, nothing is locked in front of it, and no purchase in the app unlocks a game: the shop sells coins and removing the ads, and that is all it sells.
Can I play Minesweeper without a connection?
Yes. Minesweeper runs on your device rather than on a server, so it keeps working on a plane or in the back of a car. The first launch of PlayBurst reaches out once to set up your guest account, and opens anyway if it cannot.
Where can I get Minesweeper?
Nowhere yet. PlayBurst is not out on any store at the time of writing. The Amazon Appstore comes first, for Fire tablets, then Google Play and the App Store, and the links land on this page the day they exist.
