Revamping the classics

Globesweeper is a challenging puzzle game that puts a more challenging twist to the classic Minesweeper game. While it still follows the same game mechanics, the playing field takes the form of a globe instead of the usual flat and square surface. That also goes to say that there will also be other shapes taking over instead of the usual 4-sided tiles. Globesweeper will make it harder for you to guess where the mines are hiding underneath but it does not make the game any less fun to play.

Uncover all the mines

The classic Minesweeper’s gameplay is already challenging as it is.  To refresh you with the game’s mechanics, the number on the tiles represents how many mines are placed in its immediate surrounding. For instance, a number 3 tile has 3 mines around it and once you are able to successfully find all of them, the other tiles surrounding it are already safe to click and open. Of course, you have to be mindful of the other nearby numbers as well since all the tiles share a common space. With that in mind, imagine having to deal with more neighbors! The change in the structure of the playing field from a flat 2D to a globe is not the only thing that makes Minesweeper more complex. Globesweeper features various game modes where the field is littered with other shapes like triangles and hexagons! You can try out the new shapes in the game’s various modes, which also can be played in different levels and globe sizes. Overall, Globesweeper has 3 game modes, 3 levels of difficulty, and 5 sizes available. All are challenging in their own way and are bound to keep you entertained for long periods of time. To make things more interesting and rewarding, completing a puzzle will let you unlock different beautiful themes so you would not have to look at the same monotone puzzle during the whole gameplay. There are 14 available themes in total so work hard in order to get all of them. Globesweeper is one of the best puzzle games to play without getting bored for hours as it requires focus, logical thinking, and the occasional thrill of guessing where the mine is when you reach a dead end. 

A refreshing change

Globesweeper tops it up a notch with its complex series of Minesweeper puzzles. Fans of this classic game are sure to enjoy it especially with its refreshing and more creative take on the game. Aside from its variety of puzzles, the playing field is also more flexible as players are allowed to rotate the globe and zoom in on the area, not to mention being able to wear different skins that make the appearance of the game far from boring.
