About the Game

Sweep. Spend. Repeat.

Sweeper is a roguelike that fuses the deductive tension of Minesweeper with the compounding economy of a deckbuilder. Every tile you reveal earns money. Every dollar you spend reshapes the next board. Every run ends with a single click you're not sure about.

Across 15 rounds and 3 Acts, you'll build a synergistic engine from Tags, Geoblocks, and ultra-rare Ephemeral Blocks: Items that modify rules, transform tiles, and multiply payouts in ways that interact with each other in ways you didn't plan for.

Each round puts you against a unique Boss modifier. From bosses that change the rhythm of the game to draining your balance, every run's boss lineup is different. And unlike classic Minesweeper, every click reveals exactly one tile. Every decision carries weight.

Features:

— 15-round runs across 3 Acts with escalating boards and bosses

— Tags, Geoblocks, and Ephemeral Blocks with deep synergy potential

— A shop economy that resets between Acts — spend wisely or fall behind

— Boss modifiers on every round, none of them the same

— Seeded runs — share your seed, replay your disasters

— 11 Steam Achievements
