MINESWEEPER🎮

HISTORY🏃‍♂️

• Minesweeper is a logic puzzle video game genre generally played on personal computers.
• The objective is to clear the board without detonating any mines, with help from clues about the number of neighboring mines in each field.
• Minesweeper has been incorporated as a minigame in other games, such as RuneScape and Minecraft's 2015 April Fools update.

Why I did it?🗿

• when I started BFS problems in leetcode to crack OA for intern and placement,I found this q 529.Mineweeper, which made me understand how a minesweeper game works and intrested me.(Bucket list project)

  • FUN FACT:I used to randomly pick cells when I first got a computer in 6th std.😁
  • I had no clue how it works.Mostly everyone during that time don't know how to play and I bet many don't know how to play now too.😂

  

• To revise JAVA with AWT and SWING

• To develop a final prodduct and give it as a JAR,So I learnt how to do JAR.

• Ofc to have fun🕺

If u want to learn how to develop this? Then you can view my commits,it guides you to how do the same work.

GamePlay

• In the game, mines (that resemble naval mines in the classic theme) are scattered throughout a board, which is divided into cells.
• Three states: unopened, opened and flagged. An unopened cell is blank and clickable, while an opened cell is exposed.
• Flagged cells are those marked by the player to indicate a potential mine location.
  • Players can also flag a cell, visualised by a flag being put on the location, to denote that they believe a mine to be in that place
• A player selects a cell to open it. If a player opens a mined cell, the game ends. Otherwise,
• The opened cell displays either a number, indicating the number of mines vertically, horizontally or diagonally adjacent to it. or a blank tile (or "0"), and all adjacent non-mined cells will automatically be opened
• WIN: If we managed to open all the cells without exploding a mine,then we win!
• LOOSE: when u click a mine,u lost the game.
