Mines game: the numbers behind every tile
A 5×5 grid, 1 to 24 hidden mines. Each safe tile raises the multiplier, and one mine ends the round. Here is what each pick is worth.

How a Mines round is decided
The positions of the mines are fixed when the round starts, from the server seed, your client seed and the nonce. Your picks do not move them.
A finished round can be checked with the verifier for server seed, client seed and nonce. For the multiplier of any setting at the RTP of your own title, use the mines calculator, and to see which Mines title keeps the least at a casino, open the edge comparison.

What is the best number of mines?
There is none. The edge is the same for every setting. A higher mine count makes each win larger and less frequent.
Do the mines move after I pick?
No. Their positions are fixed by the seeds before the first pick, which is what the verifier checks.
Why do multipliers differ between casinos?
Because the house edge differs. A 2% edge pays slightly less on every pick than a 1% edge.
