How Wild Sweeper works

What is Wild Sweeper?

Wild Sweeper is a browser-based power-deduction puzzle RPG. It combines modern Minesweeper-style tile clues with optional card gameplay, monster combat, HP, XP, items, and a hidden boss called the Wild Warden.

How do you play Wild Sweeper?

Click a hidden tile to reveal safe ground, an item, or a monster. A number on a safe tile is the total Power of all active monsters touching that tile. Use those Power clues to choose fights you can survive, gain XP, and eventually defeat the Wild Warden.

Your first opening is protected, so a new run begins with information you can use.

What do the numbers mean in Wild Sweeper?

A revealed number shows the combined Power of every active monster in the surrounding tiles, including diagonal neighbors. It is a Power total, not a count of monsters. Items and other safe tiles add zero.

Is Wild Sweeper the same as Minesweeper?

No. Wild Sweeper uses Minesweeper-style deduction, but its numbers total monster Power rather than count bombs. Revealing a monster starts deterministic RPG combat, and players manage HP, XP, levels, items, cards, and a hidden boss.

What happens when you reveal a monster?

A regular monster deals exactly its displayed Power as damage, after any Barrier or supported effect is applied. If you survive, you defeat it and gain XP equal to its displayed Power. Some monsters also have a clearly described board effect.

What is the goal of Wild Sweeper?

The main goal is to read Power clues, build enough survivability, locate the hidden Wild Warden, and defeat it. After securing victory, you may leave the board or continue exploring and attempt a full clear.

Do you need cards to play Wild Sweeper?

No. Every run can be played without cards. If you want more strategy, you may equip up to four owned card copies. Cards can provide effects such as Barrier, extra information, healing, targeting, or Effective Power reduction. Original clue totals do not secretly change.

Is Wild Sweeper free to play?

Yes. The interactive tutorial needs no account, guests can play with two free starter cards, and authenticated players can also begin cardless runs. Optional account-bound cards may be offered for purchase with USDC.

Do you need an account or Ronin wallet?

No account is needed for the tutorial, and temporary guest play is available. For durable progress, you can create an account using either email and password or a verified Ronin wallet. Email accounts do not require Ronin, and Ronin accounts do not require email.

Can Wild Sweeper cards be traded or sold?

No. The current beta cards are account-bound gameplay items. They are not transferable NFTs and cannot be traded or moved between player accounts.

What are Standard and Progressive modes?

Standard mode is one board at a size you choose. Progressive mode is a longer run in which the active board expands through multiple stages while your HP, XP, items, revealed tiles, and used card charges carry forward.

How do HP, XP, and levels work?

Monster Power removes HP, and you must finish combat with at least 1 HP to continue. Defeated regular monsters grant XP equal to their Power. Reaching an XP threshold raises your level, increases Max HP, and restores your HP to full.

What items can you find in Wild Sweeper?

The board can contain stored items such as Hearts for healing, Star Crystals for XP, Rune Favor for additional Max HP, Dowsing Hammers for information, and Treasure Chests with a fixed reward when opened. Found items remain stored until you choose to use them.

Is the Wild Sweeper board fair?

The live game is server-authoritative. Hidden tiles sent to the browser do not reveal their monster, item, Power, or clue information, and the browser does not generate boards or calculate combat outcomes.

Can you play Wild Sweeper on mobile?

Yes. Wild Sweeper runs in a modern web browser and has responsive controls for desktop and mobile layouts. Wallet features depend on compatible Ronin wallet support in your browser or device.

Why can a Wild Sweeper account be banned?

Accounts may be suspended or banned for cheating, bots, automation, exploiting bugs, fraudulent payments, unauthorized access, harassment, ban evasion, or other violations of the Terms and fair-play rules.

Is Wild Sweeper officially connected to Axie Infinity or Waifu Sweeper?

No. Wild Sweeper is an independent game inspired by modern Minesweeper, card RPG design, Axie Infinity, and Waifu Sweeper. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by Axie Infinity, Sky Mavis, or Waifu Sweeper. Third-party names and trademarks belong to their respective owners.
