   I'm either blind or this is a really tough one.

   [No guessing mode, evil]

     This is no-guessing-mode though, it's guaranteed to be deducible.

     @fribbledom You’re not blind. Gonna have to make guesses! I’d start with that 50/50 island top center and get that one over with :)

     I think you're missing an option, it could also look like this:

     NO-guessing-mode. It's a minesweeper puzzle that's guaranteed to be solvable without guessing.

     @fribbledom Maybe I don’t remember what guessing mode even is. I mean I’d just click one of the two squares and hope for the best.

     Brilliant, thank you! Not that tough after all, now I don't know how I missed that 😆

     @fribbledom The circled 2 means that there must be one mine on either side of the circled 3. Therefore the circled 1 will be satisfied and the x’ d box is safe to click.

     See thread, we managed to solve it and it wasn't that hard after all 🙂

     @fribbledom Oh! Wow. I’d definitely file a bug report. That little island is only solvable by guessing, not even considering the rest of the puzzle.

     @fribbledom Is the object to avoid the mines or to blow them all up? Serious question. I never understood that game.

     @Catawu

     You want to avoid them and uncover all squares without mines. Each square tells you how many mines it is being surrounded by, so you can deduce it.

     @fribbledom Ahhh! Ok. I thought I was so clever landing on the mines! Sometimes, simple games elude me.
