Minesweeper

1989

Minesweeper is a logic puzzle video game genre generally played on personal computers. The game features a grid of clickable tiles, with hidden "mines" dispersed throughout the board. The objective is to clear the board without detonating any mines, using clues about the number of neighboring mines in each field. Variants of Minesweeper have been made that expand on the basic concepts, such as Minesweeper X, Crossmines, Minesweeper Plus, and Minehunt. Minesweeper has been incorporated as a minigame in other games, such as RuneScape and Minecraft's 2015 April Fools update. Synopsis from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA.
