Also this isn’t a 50/50 chance to lose. You can win by placing all the flags without clearing all safe squares. So you’re guaranteed to win here by just flagging one, then the other if the first didn’t do the trick.
I’m not sure that is a normal win condition. Most places describe a win as being when all safe fields are cleared, not if the flags are placed correctly or at all.
All flags must be simultaneously correct for all bombs (none left out) for the win condition to happen. Flag all bombs you’re certain of and then guess the rest until you got the right combination

I don’t think that’s true on the basic Windows version most people are familiar with?

And I just jumped on one square to get it over with. If I survived, I could win, otherwise I could start a new game right away. Doh!
