Minesweeper

Minesweeper is a classic puzzle game that challenges players to clear a rectangular board containing hidden cells. The goal is to clear the board without triggering any mines.

How to Play Minesweeper

The game starts with a blank board, where players click on a cell to reveal its contents. If a cell contains a mine, the game ends, and the player loses. If a cell is empty, it displays a number indicating how many adjacent cells contain mines. The player must use this information to deduce which cells are safe to click and which contain mines.
