What is Bombe?

This single-player, top-down logic puzzle game has you create rules for Minesweeper-style boards. Rules mark bombs, clear squares, or create regions from clues; a checker verifies them before they automatically handle matching situations across thousands of levels. Every level is solvable without guessing.

For you if...

+you enjoy turning Minesweeper patterns into reusable rules

Not for you if...

−you prefer solving every board by hand
−you prefer simple puzzles to layered abstract logic

What players say
