Remember spending hours sweeping mines on that gray desktop? Minesweeper1990 is a loving, pixel-perfect tribute to the legendary logic game of the 90s — the silver bevels, the red LED counters, the yellow smiley — rebuilt for iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV and Apple Vision Pro.
CLASSIC RULES, EXACTLY AS YOU REMEMBER
- Beginner (9×9, 10 mines), Intermediate (16×16, 40) and Expert (30×16, 99), plus custom boards up to 30×24.
- Your first tap is never a mine.
- Open a blank cell and the whole area cascades open.
- Flag suspected mines, cycle question marks, and "chord" on a number to clear its neighbors at once.
- The LED counter tracks remaining mines (it even goes negative if you over-flag), the timer caps at 999, and the smiley reacts to every move.
RETRO TO THE LAST PIXEL
- Hand-drawn pixel sprites in the exact original palette.
- Hard-edged 3D bevels, seven-segment LED displays, the iconic smiley button.
- Optional retro sound effects and gentle haptics.
MADE FOR EVERY APPLE DEVICE
- Touch: tap to reveal, long-press to flag, optional Flag Mode.
- Mac: left click reveals, right click flags, both buttons chord.
- Apple TV: sweep from the couch with the Siri Remote or a game controller.
- Apple Vision Pro: the board floats in your room as a real 3D object.
