Game guide
Minesweeper by BGaming
BGaming Minesweeper is organised around successive moves. That structure matters more than the familiar name: a formula for repeatedly opening cells on one fixed board may not describe this game.

Game overview
| Item | Minesweeper |
|---|---|
| Provider | BGaming |
| Board information | Five listed configurations: 2×3, 3×6, 4×9, 5×12, 6×15 |
| Published RTP | 97.8%–98.4% in published rules |
| Distinguishing feature | Move through successive rows and Collect |
| Demo access | Exact-title launch below |
These details come from the reviewed game source. A provider’s product card and a casino’s installed version can differ; read the active rules before using a quoted setting or payout.
Demo game
Use the BGaming player below to try Minesweeper with practice credits. It is the exact title’s launch address, not a substitute from another studio. The game loads only after Play; the new-tab link provides an alternative when embedding is restricted.
Use a practice session to locate Help, the stake control and the way a round ends. Keep the displayed virtual balance separate from any casino wallet. Closing this page or restarting a demo is not a cash-out action.
How to play
- Identify the edition. Check Minesweeper and BGaming in the player or information panel.
- Read the setup. Choose Settings → Fields, then a listed configuration. START begins the round; choose a cell in the highlighted row.
- Inspect the stake and return. Note when a stake is committed, whether a displayed multiplier includes that stake, and which control ends the round.
- Follow this game’s progression. After a safe move, choose between the next highlighted row and COLLECT. Completing the last level settles automatically under the published rules.
- Check the completed result. Compare the settled amount with the round history where available. Stop to read Help if a feature changes the normal sequence.
Controls and feature limits
Select the field configuration before comparing RTP or multipliers. This game advances through rows, so a probability calculated for free selection across one fixed board does not model its progression. Use the row count, options per row and hazards specified for the selected field.
Moves, squares and Collect
The product card describes 3–15 moves and 2–6 squares, with one bomb among the squares. Its separate English rules document specifies five field configurations: 2×3, 3×6, 4×9, 5×12 and 6×15. These are listed combinations, not confirmation that the two dimensions can be varied independently. BGaming’s product page and English game rules.
Before interpreting a run, separate the number of moves from the number of choices at one move. “Five moves” and “five squares” describe different parts of the setup.
The documented round
The rules place the field-size choice under Settings → Fields. START begins the round, after which a selection is made in the highlighted row. A successful step allows progress or collection through COLLECT. A mine loses the stake and accumulated round winnings; completing all levels credits the result automatically.
The product card displays 98.4% RTP, but the rules give 97.8%–98.4% depending on player selection. The range is the more complete description. The source does not map each value to each field setting.
Why the probability model matters
A fixed board retains its remaining cells after each successful reveal. Here, the documented progression moves to another row. The calculation for a complete run depends on that distinction, as well as on how the game generates each row.
The available documents do not provide enough detail to publish a complete probability or multiplier table for every configuration. In particular, a multi-row probability needs a justified model for how successive outcomes are related.

Minesweeper and Minesweeper XY
BGaming also lists Minesweeper XY as a separate product. Similar public descriptions do not prove that the two are identical. Match the full game title and identifier before transferring settings or instructions between them.
The published RTP is a long-run theoretical measure, not a promise about a short sequence of moves.
Probabilities and calculator
The calculator uses one new row per selection. In the initial illustration there are 3 cells and 1 mine in each row: the first safe pick has probability 66.67%, and four consecutive safe picks have probability 19.75% if rows are independent. Unlike a single board, previously opened cells are not subtracted from the next row.
The table reports the chance that all selected cells are safe, measured from the start. It is not the conditional probability of the next pick after earlier successes. Neither value is a payout multiplier. The tool excludes special symbols, feature awards, stake changes and operator caps; use the probability guide for the underlying distinction.
Explore the independent-row model
Each pick moves to a new row. This illustration assumes equally likely cells and independent rows with the same mine count. These assumptions explain the calculation; they do not certify the game’s RNG or include bonus features.
Example: 3 cells and 1 mine per row.
| Picks | All safe under this model |
|---|---|
| 1 | 66.67% |
| 2 | 44.44% |
| 3 | 29.63% |
| 4 | 19.75% |
Patterns and predictors
The nine examples below show possible arrangements under the illustration’s assumptions. They were generated randomly, independently of casino rounds. They are not the most frequent layouts and do not provide a winning route.
For this row-based illustration, each row contains its own hazard. A safe choice in the previous row does not clear a column in later rows. A remembered pattern can describe which cells you intend to choose; it cannot reveal the game’s next layout. See predictor claims and the probability tool for the difference between an illustration and a live signal.
Nine generated examples
Each illustration has 6 rows of 3 cells, with 1 example mine per row. These are random teaching diagrams, not recorded rounds, frequency rankings or live signals. Unmarked cells are safe only in the pictured example.
Where to play and bonus checks

When comparing an operator, check these points for Minesweeper by BGaming:
| Check | Why it matters for this version |
|---|---|
| Exact title and provider | The features listed above belong to this exact title; a similarly named game from another provider may settle differently. |
| Game information | Check the board setup and the active RTP version in the game’s information panel. |
| Eligible-game list | Inclusion in a casino lobby does not establish bonus eligibility. |
| Contribution and restrictions | Verify wagering contribution, maximum promotional bet and any excluded game modes. |
| Currency and settlement | Check the displayed stake currency, maximum award and withdrawal terms separately. |
A casino welcome offer and an in-game feature are different things. In particular, ask: Which RTP applies to the selected field configuration? No universal bonus amount or wagering contribution is established here.
Compare related games
For the related titles discussed in this guide, compare Minesweeper XY by BGaming, Mine Gems by BGaming. Open each title’s own rules before transferring a setting or feature.
| Version | Provider identity | Main distinction |
|---|---|---|
| This game | Minesweeper — BGaming | Move through successive rows and Collect |
| Related version | Minesweeper XY — BGaming | Separate product ID: MinesweeperXY |
Use this comparison to choose which rules to read, rather than ranking games by a headline multiplier. A higher published RTP alone does not describe session volatility, feature frequency or your chosen cash-out sequence. The Mines game directory keeps the other provider versions separate.
Mobile play and troubleshooting
Try the same official demo address in a current mobile browser. Full screen or landscape can make a dense field easier to use. For Minesweeper, first ensure the active row and next-row controls remain visible; a small display is not a reason to guess a button’s function.
| Problem | Next step |
|---|---|
| Player is blank | Open the exact demo in a new tab or start again from the provider’s page. Some providers restrict embedding. |
| Demo session has expired | Obtain a fresh session from the official launch entry. Do not treat an old balance as recoverable funds. |
| A region or age screen appears | Follow the provider’s access requirements. This page does not establish eligibility for every location. |
| Settings differ from this guide | Check the title, provider and rules version, then use the values shown in that client. |
| Connection drops during a round | Consult that client’s round history and recovery rules before starting another round. Closing a player does not prove collection. |
Frequently asked questions
Which Minesweeper does this page cover?
This page covers the BGaming version of Minesweeper, identified by its exact title. Its distinguishing feature: Move through successive rows and Collect. The comparison below links the related edition rather than treating the names as interchangeable.
Can I play a free Minesweeper demo?
The demo section provides the exact provider launch address. Practice credits cannot be withdrawn. Availability can change, and a blocked embed may still work through the new-tab link.
What RTP should I use for Minesweeper?
The reviewed published figure is 97.8%–98.4%, depending on player selection. Check the active version and setting. RTP is a long-run theoretical return, not the probability of one safe reveal or a promised result.
What should I check before the first round?
Choose Settings → Fields, then a listed configuration. START begins the round; choose a cell in the highlighted row. After a safe move, choose between the next highlighted row and COLLECT. Completing the last level settles automatically under the published rules.
Can the patterns predict a winning field?
No. The nine fields are randomly generated teaching illustrations. They do not read a server seed, observe a future round or make a particular tile safer. The calculator reports probabilities under stated assumptions.
Does the game’s feature count as a casino bonus?
These are features of the game itself, not a casino bonus. A casino promotion has its own eligible-game list and conditions. Check the named campaign’s participating-game list and contribution rate separately from the in-game feature.
Can I use this demo result at a Canadian casino?
A practice result does not establish regional account access, a casino’s game build, a CAD stake limit or withdrawal eligibility. Match the game information and operator terms for your location before drawing a comparison.
