But the further you progress, the stranger things get. More and more bunnies are added with each successive board, and soon bizarre modifiers are applied.<\/p>\n<p>From each number having a chance of simply being wrong, to tiles potentially containing multiple bunnies, to tiles potentially containing <em>infinite <\/em>bunnies, to tentacles growing across the board and blocking your view, it all gets very weird, very fast.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:1920px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"5GJcLYR8VCETeWUxiXtfz9\" name=\"broomsweeper 3\" alt=\"Playing a grid in BroomSweeper.\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/this-minesweeper-roguelike-is-a-chaotic-corporate-nightmare-and-i-love-it-1.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"1\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"expandable\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\" inline-layout\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: BandsWithLegends)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p>At first it feels completely unfair. How are you supposed to solve a Minesweeper screen with incomplete or actively deceptive information? But the more you persist, the more you realise it is still possible\u2014you just have to tie your brain in fun new knots. Traditional strategies fall apart, but new ones start to develop, as you find yourself hunting for inconsistencies and likelihoods as much as truths.<\/p>\n<p>And, of course, the game lets you level the playing field a bit too. Each office cleaned earns you some cash, which you can spend at vending machines to acquire useful items, from a cheque that lets you bribe bunnies into leaving to an upgraded broom that makes your first click also reveal all four corners of the grid.<\/p>\n<p>Beat a boss (one on each floor, and yes literally one of the bosses at the company), and you get an even more powerful item, such as a mop that can clear a whole row twice per screen, or the ability to pour cement over parts of the grid you don&#8217;t like.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:2560px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"rheSYB9U5Krwg3TYfrFb2A\" name=\"broomsweeper 4\" alt=\"Shopping at a vending machine in BroomSweeper.\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/this-minesweeper-roguelike-is-a-chaotic-corporate-nightmare-and-i-love-it-2.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"1\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1440\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"expandable\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\" inline-layout\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: BandsWithLegends)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<div>\n<blockquote>\n<p>It starts to feel like you and the game are fighting over every grid, both undermining the actual puzzle with every dirty trick you can. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<p>The result, predictably, is chaos, especially as there doesn&#8217;t seem to be a limit on how many items you can stack as long as you have the cash for them (they&#8217;ll literally spill out of the inventory window and off-screen if you get too many, but still grant their effects).
