Mines+ Redraws the Board Each Bet, So the Stop Is the Only Move
Twenty-five tiles in a 5x5 grid invite reading, and Mines+ itself supplies the proof that there is nothing to read. The RANDOM button opens one tile at random and pays from the same table as any chosen square, 1.11x on a first pick at three mines either way, while the dimmed reveal of every mine position arrives only once the round has ended. What the layout hides is a fixed ladder, printed in the rules from 1.02x up to the 5,070,293x cap; placement is redrawn with every bet, so a position holds no information and the pick is never the decision. The decision is the stop.
How to play
Behind the 25 face-down tiles of Mines+ sit diamonds that raise a multiplier on the stake and mines that end the round on the spot. After every safe reveal the same decision returns: pick another tile or press CASHOUT and take the current win.
-
Set bet and mine count
Set a stake with the - and + buttons beside TOTAL BET, then pick in the MINES panel how many of the 25 tiles hide mines, from 1 to 24. The round starts on the grid with all tiles face down and pickable.
-
Reveal tiles until cashout or bust
Each pick turns a tile: a diamond adds a multiplier of the bet to CURRENT WIN and unlocks the next pick; a mine ends the round and clears the win. CASHOUT collects the current value at any time; uncovering every diamond awards it automatically.
Playing smart: bankroll and volatility
Exactly one return figure is documented for Mines+: 97.50%, measured on a 9-mines round played to the last diamond with CASHOUT untouched. The three choices below work at three different moments — inside a live round, before the next one, across an autoplay batch — and each changes something the other two cannot reach.
Cashing out: open after one diamond, never forced
CASHOUT turns usable once the first diamond is revealed and stays live until the round ends. Pressing it awards the current win and closes the round, so a collected value can no longer be wiped out by a later mine; clearing every diamond pays automatically, which makes the button optional rather than required. Nothing in the rules states what a round returns when the exit comes early.
The mines number binds one round at a time
A MINES setting of 1 to 24 is picked before the bet and binds the round started under it; the panel can be re-set for the following round. Higher counts cut the diamond supply and the maximum round length while paying more per step; the extremes meet: a full clear at 1 mine and one safe pick at 24 mines both pay 24.38x. Whether a started round can be reconfigured is never shown.
Autoplay's stops guard the batch, set in advance
Autoplay is configured before the batch runs: a slider sets the number of bets, and STOP ON LOSS and STOP ON PROFIT halt it once the chosen total is lost or won from the start. ON WIN and ON LOSS reset the stake or step it by a chosen percentage (-100% drops the next bet to the minimum). SET CUSTOM PATH pre-picks each bet's tiles, but how an automated round decides to cash out is never stated.

What we think
| Key advantages | Twenty-five selectable mine counts let the player set risk from 1.02x steps to a 5,070,293x cap. |
|---|---|
| Key advantages | Autoplay pairs stop-loss and stop-profit limits with a custom tile path, so a chosen strategy runs untouched. |
| Key advantages | Multiplier tables for every mine count sit in the rules, so each pick's price is known before the round starts. |
| Downsides to consider | The stated 97.50% return applies only at 9 mines played to completion; no RTP is given for any other setup. |
| Downsides to consider | No provably fair mechanism is mentioned anywhere in the nine-page rules, so fairness rests on trust alone. |
Mines+ turns the cash-out decision into a dial: mine count and pick count replace any volatility rating, and the printed tables price every step. But the two figures a crash reader leans on are half-hidden, with the return stated for one setup only and no fairness proof offered. It suits players automating a chosen risk profile.
