Strait Escape

Navigate deadly straits under pressure. Detect hidden mines, mark safe paths, and escape before time runs out.

The strait is mined. You can’t see what’s ahead. You have to read the sea to survive.

Strait Escape is minesweeper on a moving ship.

You command a ship clearing mines across the world, keeping trade and travel routes safe. Start at the left edge of a minefield and navigate to the right. The waters ahead are hidden - only what’s behind you reveals the truth.

WHO IT’S FOR If you like minesweeper, this is a deeper, more tactical version. If you’re new, early runs are forgiving so you can learn without frustration.

The board is fair. You fail because you took a risk - not because the game cheated.

Chart your course. Read the sea. Escape the strait.
