About this game

"Back in my day, we did this with our eyes closed…"
That coworker you dread every morning? Now you get to dodge them — in a game.

Avoid the Boss - Office Escape Minesweeper

A unique mobile puzzle game that every office worker can relate to. Classic minesweeper strategy combined with workplace humor. Use number hints to avoid the Kkondae (old-fashioned bosses, the "mines") and escape the office safely!

Game Overview

Numbers on each cell show how many Kkondae hide in the surrounding 8 cells. Use logic to find every safe cell and escape the office.

Key Features

Kkondae Dex - Collect the Nagging (NEW)
Collect the nagging and grudging-praise lines from the bosses you meet in-game. A collection of 30 failure lines and 20 victory lines! Turn your favorite line into a card image and share it with friends - show off "what nonsense I heard today."

Daily Challenge - One Puzzle, Everyone (NEW)
Players around the world tackle the exact same puzzle every day. Compete for the fastest escape time, share your result as a card, and fill your monthly calendar with clear stamps as you build a streak.

Daily Check-in Rewards (NEW)
Log in every day to earn Hint, Flag, Revive, and Auto-Click items on a 7-day cycle. The longer your streak, the better the rewards.

Difficulty Selection by Job Level
Choose from 4 different job levels - each with its own difficulty. Newbie: 8x8 grid with 10 Kkondae, 3-year: 10x10 grid with 20 Kkondae, 7-year: 12x12 grid with 35 Kkondae, Team Leader: 16x16 grid with 60 Kkondae.

Intuitive Gameplay
Easily switch between explore and flag modes. In explore mode, check safe cells. In flag mode, mark suspicious locations. When you click a cell with no surrounding Kkondae, connected safe cells are automatically revealed for faster progress.

Immersive Sound
Background music and sound effects enhance the gaming experience. Button clicks, cell reveals, flag placements, and victory/defeat sounds respond to every action. Independently control background music and sound effects in settings.

Google Play Games Integration
Sign in to Game Center and compete worldwide. Climb difficulty-based leaderboards and earn achievements - from your first victory to perfect clears. Best times are auto-saved per job level and submitted to global rankings.

Item System
Four helpful items: Hint (reveal a safe cell), Flag Add (more flags), Revive (second chance), Auto Click (automatic first move). Watch ads to refill when depleted.

How to Play

1. Pick a job level and press start
2. Toggle between explore and flag modes
3. Click safe cells; flag suspicious ones
4. Use number hints to find safe paths
5. Reveal all safe cells to escape

Victory Condition
Successfully escape by revealing all cells without Kkondae. Completion time is recorded and compared with your best record.

Defeat Condition
Game over when clicking a cell with Kkondae. All Kkondae locations are revealed. Press stop button to reset and try again.

Strategy Tips

Combine the numbers to deduce which cells are safe and which hide Kkondae. Flag the cells you're sure about to avoid mistakes. Start from corners and edges - they have fewer neighbors and are easier to read - then expand your safe zone. Learn common patterns through repeated play for faster, more accurate decisions.
