Original game imageAbout
Minesweeper is a logic puzzle game genre, usually played on personal computers, in which players clear a grid of tiles without detonating hidden mines by using clues about neighboring mines. minecurses is a terminal Minesweeper game built with ncurses. So far it draws the board, supports cursor movement and basic keyboard input, and has an area reveal; it is unfinished and development has halted.
How it differs from the original
The planned end goal is a solver-backed generator that creates boards solvable without guessing, which is not part of classic Minesweeper.
Getting started
Move with hjkl or WASD, reveal with r, flag with f, and use Shift+R for the area reveal, which is equivalent to a middle-click in standard Minesweeper.
