This is a project for the 10CSL67-VTU lab practicals. This project demonstrates a simple game of Mine-Sweeper. Minesweeper is a single-player puzzle video game. The objective of the game is to clear a square board containing hidden "mines" without detonating any of them, with help from clues about the number of neighboring mines in each field.

Wrap-Around MineSweeper

Computer Graphics and Visualization Laboratory Project 10CSL67 (2016-2017 batch)

This project demonstrates a simple game of Mine-Sweeper. Minesweeper is a single-player puzzle video game. The objective of the game is to clear a square board containing hidden "mines" without detonating any of them, with help from clues about the number of neighboring mines in each field. The game is played by revealing squares of the grid by clicking each square. If a square containing a mine is revealed, the player loses the game. If no mine is revealed, a digit is instead displayed in the square, indicating how many adjacent squares contain mines; if no mines are adjacent, the square becomes blank. The player uses this information to deduce the contents of other squares, and may either safely reveal each square or mark the square as containing a mine by placing a flag.

The game will be played as follows:

1. Left Mouse button to select a box/field and reveal its contents.
2. Right Mouse button to place a flag on the square or remove an existing flag.
3. On left clicking a field that has a mine, the game is “GAME OVER”
