Minescryer
Minescryer
by https://www.youtube.com/@IcelyPuzzles (I also have a cursed minesweeper variants playlist). Part of Confounding Calendar 2023.
(Note/partial hint: not a game that works on mobile, and is less solvable for laptops but still solvable with an alternative path)

i found a way to beat this on laptop without using keyboard shortucts FROM GAME.
recently kde (yep, that trick linux-only) guys added option to use num lock as additional option to use mouse virtually (mostly for people without mouse) and some laptops do have numlock, so basically i switch numlock click to middle key (* on numlock row). then hold 5 on numlock and at same time scroll with touchpad. quite works but it also makes number random. sadly. this middle key also works with combo of left+middle and right+middle for these cominations.
enjoy that "cheat" :)
How is it possible that i only find out about this game 2 years after it's published?
Ridiculous idea, Ridiculously well-made

Rule discovery minesweeper? Imagine this with negative mines...
crazy minesweeper idea
Youtube homepage just blessed me with this
horrorgem of a game, what a rideYou're walcome :walc
i actually had a "minescryer 2" but it was worse so I never published it hahaha
You should totally publish it! Even if it's bad, there's bound to be at least some people who will enjoy it!
This is amazing.

As someone who loves minesweeper, I found this extremely fascinating. Loved playing this a lot!!
thank you!!! <3 <3 i have a minesweeper youtube video playlist where i show lots of other cool variants (not by me) if you haven't seen it...
this reminds me that i made a sequel to this but it's nowhere near as good as this one so I didn't post it anywhere lmao
oooh i'll definitely check out that minesweeper playlist, thanks for replying!!

First of all, chefs kiss for making middle click inbetween left and right on the rules page
Not only that, the hotkey for middle click is d, which is between s and f (Left and right click respectively)
The underlining is kinda cheap but hey it helped me solve it sooo...
so fun

I like that you can complete the game even without a mouse
when I first solved for 5 mines, the sound and text jumpscared me so hard LMAO
That 20th mine was really rough (I was trying stuff like somehow clicking between two cells except it didn't do anything); good game, though.
haha lol, your idea at least thematically makes sense for what it actually ends up being though
Thank you that was a fun puzzle, the comments helped a bit, for a second I thought the solution was opening a new tab to "scry" possibilities and then I figured out the actual solution made it feel silly. really good and your latest video mentioning "partial solutions" really helped.

amazing
Cool puzzle, I hate you
chess battle advanced
the top right was the hardest for me, and i figured out the final rule way earlier than intended
"What a weird looking flag!" - me, clueless
Fun game
also side note, randomly the question marks will have the text font for some reason
nice, would recommend for people getting into minesweeper
half a mine
Good thing I found this after finding out about half-mines
theres 10 mines but it says to get 5 correct???
Well, you only need to find the 5. Makes it twice as easy, no?
why is there cursed text i dont get it
This could have been more evil. You could have obhaq pncfybpx+gno gb fbzrguvat
gur grkg vf rapbqrq jvgu ebg13 ogj
I found out the last rule pretty easily, hated the last step though
MY MIND IS BLOWN AND I DIDN'T EVEN BEGIN THE PUZZLE ICELY WHY
The real mine was in my head this whole time.

Impressive, but very satisfying to complete!
That was really satisfying :)
This was fun and surprising! Looked like a puzzle minesweeper at the beginning, but it got even more interesting with the rules addition.
