I really don't see what's so hard about it. The name pretty much implies the point.

I agree, but I've seen many people look at the minesweeper board as if it were a big, black, rectangular monolith.

point proven ;)

OK, al-bhed_kid. If you click on a square (and you don't hit a mine) a number will appear (which you already know, of course). That number tells you how many of that squares surrounding squares contain mines. So if you click a square in the middle of the grid, and a 1 pops up, that means that 1 of the 8 surrounding squares contains a mine, and the other 7 are safe. A 2= 2 mines, etc. Now if a "2" has only two un-clicked squares around it, then both of those must be mines. Maybe that will get you started... (...I suck at giving explanations)

Solitaire is too easy I don't play it anymore. But Freecell is becoming too easy where it's boring me as well. I've never understood minesweeper though.

Thanks farplaner!

I still suck at the game though...XD

My parents started out with solitaire and mastered it.

Then my dad moved on to freecell, and mom followed suit and they mastered that.

Now they play hearts, and from what I can see, they've pretty much got that mastered too. It's ridiculous!

I played solitaire after reading this, and it took a few refreshes and one nearly giving up but I beat it.

Minesweeper is awesome. Also, hearts is pretty good. Neel, Azzie, Doomie, RSL, and us people play every once ina blue [moon].

Sure thing! Just keep at it, you'll start to notice more and more ways to discover the mines, then it will be a snap!

I was pretty excited the first time I beat solitare ^^ Then it got less exciting... xD The double solitaire thing on MSN though, that can be pretty fun. Like when I pwned Wezly's arse into submission :D (Well, I do that anyway, but...)

I think everyone feels damn good when they beat Solitaire :D And, yep... when you do it over and over, the magic just disappears!
