Compared with FreeCellOK, another small puzzle title from the same kind of catalog, MineSweeperOK goes for a different classic: the mine-clearing grid game Windows users know well. It is a modern clone of that original, built as a compact desktop app. The current version is 1.23, and it costs nothing.
SoftwareOK as the publisher
MineSweeperOK comes from SoftwareOK, whose site is www.softwareok.com. The package ID is SoftwareOK.MineSweeperOK, and the licence is Freeware.
Version 1.23 was released and last updated on October 18, 2026.
What the clone covers
The store text describes the game as a modern clone of the legendary Windows Minesweeper, which it calls one of the most popular games of all time. The aim is to bring the classic gameplay back to the Windows desktop.
Size and Windows support
