Minefield for Everybody - Game Overview


Judah Warshaw wrote 'Minefield for Everybody, for Every Computer, for Every Monitor' in 1993.

Minefield For Everybody is a game of strategy, logic, and a little bit of luck. The program runs in text mode and will work on ANY IBM-compatible system. This game is similar to the Minesweeper program distributed with Microsoft Windows, but is now playable by ANYONE! No special hardware is required as the program runs in both monochrome and color, and uses the mouse or keyboard. By using less than 75K of disk space, and running in 128K of memory, it is ideal for laptops and palmtops that support 80x25 text mode. Features of the game include save and restore of game, 5 preset playfields of varying difficulty, 43/50 line mode for EGA/VGA equipped systems, menu system makes for easy access to all game features, user defined playfield size and bomb ratio for complete customization, keyboard and mouse both supported. Shareware, registration fee only $5.

Difficulty levels on a standard screen are Private (10x10 with 6 mines), Sergant (25x10 with 25 mines), Major (50x15 with 100 mines), General (77x17 with 174 mines) and Commander in Chief (77x17 with 523 mines). Hi-Res mode increases the height of each level, for example Commander and Chief becomes 77x25 with 1293 mines. You navigate with the arrow keys and press [space] to open squares and press [enter] to mark squares, winning when all mines are marked. It is also possible to play with a mouse and you can customise the grid size and the number of mines. A useful feature is the ability to save one unfinished game and finish it later.
