A practical Minesweeper method
Chord confirmed numbers
When an opened number touches the same number of flags, tap or click it again to reveal every other covered neighbor at once. Keyboard players can focus it and press Enter, Space or C. A misplaced flag can expose a mine.
One keyboard entry point
Tab enters the board at its selected square; Arrow keys move between squares without wrapping across rows. Home and End jump to the first and last square in the current row. Tab or Shift+Tab leaves the board normally. Flags, reveals and Pause/Resume retain the selected entry point, so the 16 × 16 board does not require 256 Tab stops.
Use flags as proof
When a number touches only enough hidden squares to contain its remaining mines, those squares must be mines. Flag them, then chord the number to continue quickly.
