Deduce the location of all mines in the picture above
How to play...
Minesweeper
is a game where you use deductive logic to locate hidden mines in a board of tiles. Covered squares (
) may or may not hide a mine. Other squares display a number (eg.
,
, or
) respresenting the number of mines present in the 8 squares adjacent to that square. Blank squares (
) indicate that there are zero mines in the adjacent squares. Using these numbers, it is possible to deduce the location of mines based on the numbers describing them.
Examples
How many mines are hidden in the picture above?
Which covered squares hide mines in the picture above?
From Richard Kaye's paper Minesweeper is NP-Complete (The Mathematical Intelligencer, Vol 22, Number 2, 2000)
