Minesweeper Game Database

Bomb Squad (2016)



Overview
Bombsquad was written for the CoCo 3 in 2016 by John Strong.

Bomb Squad is a clone of Minesweeper, a game that came bundled with Windows. It features 5 different skill levels (the size of the playfield increases the higher skill level you go), and it keeps track of your best score for each level, during each play session. In the game you have flag mines, and expose empty spaces. You attempt to expose empty ones by using button one, and flag a mine by using button 2, on a two button joystick or mouse. Each time you expose a square, it will empty out all surrounding squares that have no mines touching them. If a mine touches them, you will instead see a number (the number of surrounding squares that have mines in them).

The game was released on cartridge at the 25th Annual CocoFest in Chicago in 2016.
