To help avoid hitting a mine, the location of a suspected mine can be marked by flagging it with the right mouse button. Some squares are blank but some contain numbers (1 to 8), each number being the number of mines adjacent to the uncovered square. The location of the mines is discovered by a process of logic.Ĭlicking on the game board will reveal what is hidden underneath the chosen square or squares (a large number of blank squares may be revealed in one go if they are adjacent to each other). Version 1.2.6 (April 2022) macOS (Installer) Source (Tar ball - allows to build executable on all platforms) Linux/X11 and Windows: build from source (see README file) Version 1.2.The goal of the game is to uncover all the squares that do not contain mines without being 'blown up' by clicking on a square with a mine underneath.

The use of SVG allows easy high resolution graphics on any screen (including Retina displays) and whatever will come along in the future. The choice of Qt for the GUI allows MineSweeper to work on various platforms (Linux, Windows, Mac) without the need to rewrite a single line of the code.

While other implementation exist, many have issues with Mac's retina displays. What motivated me writing the game was that osxMineSweeper, a popular implementation of Minesweeper on the Mac, became incompatible with the most recent versions of OSX and ceased to run. What is it?: MineSweeper is based on Microsoft's Minesweeper that was shipped with many versions of Windows, although the origins of the game go further back than that.
