About

Minesweeper is a logic puzzle game genre in which players clear a grid of hidden mines using clues about how many mines neighbor each tile. ncmines is a terminal-based Minesweeper for Linux with easy (10x10, 15 mines), medium (16x16, 40 mines) and hard (30x16, 99 mines) difficulties.

How it differs from the original

It runs in a text terminal instead of a graphical window, with Vim-style keys as well as arrow keys for movement.

Getting started

On Arch Linux it can be installed from the AUR; elsewhere it is built and installed with make. Move with Vim keys or arrow keys, press f to flag a mine, and space or enter to uncover a square.
