About

Minesweeper is a logic puzzle game genre, usually played on personal computers, in which the player clears a grid of tiles without detonating hidden mines, using clues about neighboring mines. minex is a terminal-based Minesweeper written in Python with the Textual TUI framework, with full mouse support. It has Easy, Medium, Expert and Custom levels, five color themes, sound effects through Pygame, and saved statistics and settings.

How it differs from the original

It runs in a terminal but can still be played with the mouse. It adds five themes (Default, Winter, Desert, Space, Cyberpunk), win-streak and best-time tracking, and a setting for which button chords.

Getting started

Download a standalone executable from the GitHub releases page, or install it with pipx (pipx install minex) and run minex in a terminal. Python 3.9 or newer is required; it runs on Linux, macOS and Windows.
