How to play Minesweeper game?

Minesweeper is a classic computer game where the objective is to uncover all the squares on a grid without uncovering any mines. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to play Minesweeper:

    

Open the Minesweeper game on your computer or mobile device. It's usually found in the Games folder on Windows computers or can be downloaded from app stores for mobile devices.

You'll see a grid of squares on the screen, with some squares already uncovered. Each square represents a hidden tile that can either be empty or contain a mine.

The numbers displayed on the uncovered squares indicate the number of mines in the adjacent squares. For example, if a square has a "3" on it, it means there are three mines in the eight squares surrounding that number. Left-click on any square to start the game. If the square contains a mine, you lose. However, if it's empty, the game continues.
If you uncover a square that doesn't have a number on it, it means there are no mines in its adjacent squares. In this case, the game will automatically uncover all the neighboring squares until it reaches squares with numbers.

Use the information provided by the numbered squares to deduce the locations of mines. For example, if you uncover a square with a "1" on it and there is only one adjacent square that is still hidden, it's likely that square contains a mine.

Right-click on a square if you suspect it contains a mine. This will flag the square to indicate that you think it's a mine. Right-clicking again will place a question mark, and a third right-click will remove the flag or question mark.

Continue left-clicking on squares to uncover them and right-clicking to flag or question mark suspicious squares. The game ends when you've uncovered all the safe squares or when you click on a square with a mine.

If you click on a mine, the game is over, and you can start a new game by clicking the "New Game" button.

As you progress, you can try to improve your time and aim for faster completion. Remember, the goal is to uncover all the non-mine squares without clicking on any mines. It may take some practice, but with time, you can become more skilled at Minesweeper.

Good luck and have fun playing!
