    50/50 chance, take a wild guess.

    Guess.

    Minesweeper is notorious for having some luck to it. The key is trying to do the 100% luck parts as early as possible so you don’t waste time doing the rest of the board only to fail later.

      Gotta do the edges first, the squares on the edges have less information

      Minesweeper is notorious for having some luck to it.

      There’s guess-free versions that guarantee solvable games. There’s also ones that automatically place a mine on the clicked tile if you take an unnecessary guess. Personally I really like https://davidnhill.github.io/JSMinesweeper with only “Fast mode” (and optionally “No guess”) enabled and everything else off.

    I go by what I think would look better. Top one being a mine would look better imo, so I would flag it and click middle.

    Memory dump to save your state then reload after you pick the wrong one.

    Use a better minesweeper algorithm? Or flip a coin.

    Play a better version, this one is supposed to not have this problem https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/puzzles/js/mines.html or this one https://pwmarcz.pl/kaboom/ which will punish you for guessing if there’s only one valid option, it places the mines as you play.
