This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.
Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

************************ MINEFIELD ************************
by
************************ MAG & CAT ********** 1993 ********
KEYS:
Z = LEFT
X = RIGHT
" = UP
? = DOWN
Alt = Press this and movement keys cursor moves faster
Return = Reveal square (Fire!)
R = Reveal where all the mines where if you get fed up or annoyed!
f3 = Sound ON
f4 = Sound OFF
Can you sweep clear all the mines in the minefield by logical deduction?
Move the cursor over the squares - some of which are already revealed -
and press Return to reveal THAT square. The contents will give you clues
as to what is in the surrounding squares. A blank square means that there
are no bombs surrounding that square. A number from 1 to 8 indivates there
are THAT number of bombs touching that square (diagonally aswell!). A bomb
means you've blown it (and yourself!).
Skill:
There are 480 squares and the default settings are:
100 Mines
120 Squares revealed
This is quite mean enough to solve; the more mines and the less squares
revealed the harder the game. Try 200 mines and 20 revealed if you like
a protracted challenge - guarenteed brain racking and frustration FREE
with this game! Better still try 300+ mines and 1 square revealed!
