Numbers count bombs
A number shows how many of the 8 cubes around it hide a bomb.
MINESWEEPER WITH A HIDDEN PICTURE
Pixel Bomb
Every safe tap paints a pixel.
Classic minesweeper logic on chunky voxel cubes. Open the safe ones, flag the bombs, and a hidden picture appears cube by cube. You never have to guess.
Or play a board right here
Every safe cube shows its colorThe picture appears cube by cube.
HOW TO PLAY
Three rules. One hidden picture.
Open every cube that is not a bomb. The numbers tell you where the bombs are, and every board can be solved with logic alone.
Flag what you can prove
Long-press, right-click or use flag mode to mark a bomb. Tap a number with all its flags to open the rest.
Uncover the picture
Every safe cube shows its true color. Clear the board and the whole picture lights up.
NEW TO MINESWEEPER?
Start here.
Five habits that turn random clicking into calm logic.
- 01Tap anywhere first
In Pixel Bomb your first tap is always safe and opens an area to work from.
- 02Count all 8 neighbors
Diagonals count too. A cube on an edge has only 5 neighbors and a corner only 3, the place where most counting mistakes happen.
- 03Start with the easy numbers
Look for a number that touches as many hidden cubes as its value, or one that already has all its flags.
- 04Flag only what you can prove
A wrong flag misleads every number around it. If a flag is wrong, the hint removes it first.
- 05Stuck? Look somewhere else
Another edge of the board often has an easy move. Still stuck? A hint shows the next move and the numbers that prove it.
Six patterns that solve most boards
- Beginner
Count the hidden cubes
If a number touches exactly as many hidden cubes as its value, all of them are bombs.
- Beginner
Satisfied numbers
If a number already has all its flags, every other cube around it is safe. Tap the number to open them all at once.
- Beginner
The 1-1 pattern
Two 1s side by side at a wall share the same bomb, so the cube beyond the second 1 is safe.
- Advanced
The 1-2 pattern
Next to a 1, a 2 needs one extra bomb, and it can only be the cube beyond.
- Advanced
The 1-2-1 pattern
The bombs sit next to the 1s. The cube in the middle, next to the 2, is safe.
- Advanced
The 1-2-2-1 pattern
The two bombs sit next to the 2s. The cubes next to the 1s are safe.
ALREADY A VETERAN?
Play faster and cleaner.
Habits of fast players, adapted to Pixel Bomb.
- 01Subtract your flags
A 3 with one flag next to it works like a 2. Reduce the numbers and the patterns above appear again.
- 02Chord instead of tapping
Tap a number whose flags are complete and all its other neighbors open at once.
- 03Flag only when it pays
A flag is worth placing when it lets you chord. Otherwise just open the safe cubes.
- 04Use the bomb counter
In the endgame compare the bombs left with the hidden cubes. It often decides the last corner.
- 05There are no 50/50s
Every Pixel Bomb board can be solved with logic. If it looks like a coin flip, a number somewhere else or the bomb counter decides it.
