# World Sweeper Press Release

Updated: 2026-05-06

## Overview

World Sweeper is an online Minesweeper built around a giant shared board. Because the board is larger and persistent rather than a neutral grid, cleared areas remain visible and turn puzzle progress into scenery.

Traditional Minesweeper is a quiet solo puzzle. World Sweeper changes that by making player activity, cleared territory, and contested areas visible at a glance. The result is a game that is interesting to watch as well as play.

## Key Features

- Any large silhouette-like image can become a board.
- Multiple players can work through the same giant world in real time.
- Area claiming creates a light but readable layer of competition.
- Cleared space remains visible, giving the board a sense of evolving geography.
- Players can start anonymously and only link Google later if they want continuity.

## Coverage Hooks
