Minesweeper is a classic puzzle game where the objective is to clear a grid of hidden "mines" without detonating any of them. This implementation is a command-line interface (CLI) version of the game, written in Python.
-
Game Grid: The game grid is presented with cells, and mines are randomly distributed in it. You cannot see the mines.
-
Cell States: Cells have two states: unopened & opened.
- Unopened: Blank and selectable.
- Opened: Exposed. Displays count of adjacent (up, down, right, left or any diagonal) mines.
-
Player Actions: The player selects a cell to open.
- If the selected cell has a mine, the player blows up the grid and loses the game.
- If the selected cell does not have a mine, the clicked cell displays a number to indicate the count of mines diagonally and/or adjacent to it, or a blank tile ("0") if there are no adjacent mines.
-
How to Win: Open all non-mine cells without detonating any mines.
Run the Python script play.py. You will be prompted to enter the width and height of the grid. Then, the game will start for you to guess non-mine coordinate positions.
Good luck, and have fun!
