Screenshot from Antimine on Android. It’s supposed to not require any guesses, but I’m totally stuck. I’m probably missing something simple, so more eyes on it should help… Anyone?

    • Are red Xs safe?
    • How did you come to this?

    Also, I just posted the final result (had to make one guess), some of your marks are wrong

      X’s are mines. Just for an example, at the top I missed a mine. There’s a 1,3,3. The second 3 has a mine above and below it. If the 1 says there is a mine near it and the second 3 says there’s one other mine and the only space they overlap is under the first 3, then the mine is under the first 3.

        Also if Xs are mines then you get plenty of numbers with too many mines around them. For example the 1 in the vertical 2123 about 1/3 of the way up from the bottom

            Whatever logic you’re using, it’s dead wrong. I’ve overlayed the true solution with your marks, and it’s very hit or miss:

            You might as well be guessing.

        But it doesn’t have to be one mine for both of them, they could have separate mines

          No, because the first 3 confirms it. It counts the same two mines around the second 3 and can’t reach the other side of the second 3, so the third mine is under the first 3.
