About Globesweeper

Globesweeper is a twist on the classic minesweeper game. Use the numbers to work out all the tiles that are safe to reveal but be careful one mistake revealing a mine will cause the whole globe to detonate and you will have to start again!

With hexagon, triangle and classic square game modes, 5 different globe sizes and 4 difficulty settings you can be playing on anything from tiny hexagonal globes made of 92 tiles to colossal triangle globes with 20,480 tiles.

Play in traditional or guaranteed solvable mode where you never have to guess.

Gain achievements to unlock all 14 themes including planet Earth, the Moon, Mars, stylish gold, ruby, emerald and sapphire.

Can you beat a colossal globe?

How to Play



Each tile you reveal will have a number on it (blank means 0). This is the number of mines on adjacent tiles*. For example in hexagonal mode if you have a tile with a 3 on it and 3 of its 6 adjacent tiles have been revealed you know the other 3 are mines.

Now if you have a tile with 1 on it and one of its adjacent tiles has been marked as a mine you know the other 5 adjacent tiles are safe to be revealed as its mine is already accounted for.

Using this technique carry on until the whole globe is revealed. The same technique can be used for both the triangle and the classic square game modes.

*Adjacent tiles are any tiles that share a corner. For hexagons this is 6 tiles, squares 8 tiles and triangles 12 tiles.

Key Features

  • Guaranteed solvable option
  • Hexagonal, classic and triangle modes
  • 5 globes sizes to choose from

The creators of this game have taken the old default '[b]Minesweeper[/b]' game from Windows, and put it on steroids. They have made it into a 3D game, and they give you more choices in the game settings than you can shake a stick at. You can choose from... [list] [*]2 shapes for the puzzle itself ([i]a globe, or a cube[/i]). [*]3 shapes for the puzzle tiles ([i]hexagon, square or triangle[/i]). [*]5 sizes ([i]small, medium, large, huge, or collossal[/i]). [*]4 difficulty options for the level of mine density ([i]low, standard, dense, or insane[/i]). [*]2 different modes ([i]classic traditional or guaranteed solvable[/i]). [*]Several different skins/themes and mine colors.[/list] You can choose a tiny hexagon globe ([i]92 tiles[/i]) for a quickie, or choose a colossal triange globe ([i]over 20,000 tiles[/i]) to keep yourself busy for an hour or so. There are 16 achievements, and they do count on your Profile. However, there are neither trading cards, nor Point Shop items. There is a ton of replayability here. Great way to kill time, and exercise your brain. I bet I will put a good 100 hours into this game, so it is definitely well worth the money I spent on it. The ga…

If you're a player who chords (reveals off flags), the game's controls feel perfectly fine. However, if you're a player like me who only reveals tiles by clicking (and doesn't flag/right-click), the controls feel really bad. Trying to repeatedly left click quickly is impossible; the game registers that as you trying to move the board around, so you're forced to click at a slow pace if you want to reveal tiles. There's also the option to rebind controls, so I tried binding left-click to spacebar. The issue of clicks not registering if you're fast persisted, even if you couldn't move the board with the rebound control. You have been warned if you are a no-flagging player like me. The refund button exists for a reason. Still giving this game a thumbs-up because I want to support the dev :D (I have spent an ungodly amount of time on the mobile version)
