Key Points

  • Both players receive the identical board seeded the same way - the race outcome is determined purely by speed and skill, not board luck.
  • Only players who have reached the minimum rank threshold can create or join rooms. Play Standard mode to reach the required rank.
  • The game starts automatically when a second player joins. Share your room code before creating to avoid waiting.
  • Hitting a mine does not end your game - you continue, but the opponent can still win by clearing their board before you finish recovering.
  • Multiplayer results are separate from ranked records - your best-time and 3BV/s leaderboard stats are not affected by race outcomes.

How It Works

1
Create a Room
Pick a difficulty and share the 6-character room code with your opponent before they arrive.
2
Opponent Joins
They enter the code in the Join by Code box - the game starts automatically for both players.
3
Race to Clear
Both players see the same board. First to clear all safe cells wins the round.
4
Mine Hits Continue
Hitting a mine marks that cell and slows you down but does not eliminate you - keep clearing.
Pro Tips
  • Create rooms in your secondary difficulty for a competitive match. If you are strongest at Expert, racing a peer at Intermediate keeps the contest tighter and more engaging than a lopsided Expert race.
  • Open rooms in the list are joinable by any eligible player - if you want a private match, share your code only with your opponent before they see the open rooms list.
  • After a mine hit, keep moving - chord-clearing adjacent revealed cells is the fastest recovery path. Stopping to re-evaluate costs more time than the mine hit itself.
