About the Game

"Infinitely Playable" Minesweeper!

WayBackers is an arcade-style 2D puzzle game based on the classic rules of Minesweeper. Your mission? Dig deeper and deeper while dodging deadly mines!

Dig Like Crazy!

There’s no time to sit and overthink. This Minesweeper comes with a time limit! Trust your experience and intuition—dig, dig, and keep on digging!

Step on a Mine, and It’s Game Over

The game features a variety of modes, but every single one demands absolute, unwavering concentration. A single second of carelessness, and BOOM—it’s an instant Game Over!

Challenge the High Scores!

Your best scores will be saved on the leaderboard. The game uses a password system, allowing you to easily share codes to compete for the highest score with friends, your favorite streamers, or your own community.

...And, lest we forget this sin...

The game also features a brand-new, original "Story Mode." Witness the conclusion of this tale with your own hands.

(Please note: Story Mode text is currently available in Japanese only.)
