How to play minesweeper ?

This is the Classic minesweeper game screen you should see now
There are nine boxes around the number 1 indicated in the above picture.So if it is indicated as 1 , then there must be one mine around the 1. Luckily all the other 8 boxes are opened and only one box is unopened near it.So surely it must be a mine. Right click on it to mark it as a mine.
So far so good . Ok we have found 4 out of 10 mines. Only 6 mines are remaining.Did you notice the left indicator ?Every time you right click and mark a box as mine it decreases.It helps you to keep a track of mines you have Found.Cool isnt it? If you have to deselect a marked mine , again right click on it twice.
Whats the next step ?
It is now safe to open the boxes around the 1 which already has a mine around it.Dint get me ? see the picture for clear understanding.
Fine.Till now if you have understood the game then it is easy from here.Did you notice number 2 ? so it means there will be 2 mines around the boxes.See the below picture.
We are almost near .We have to find only the other two mines.Check the indicator to see the remaining mines.We got another step to solve this .See the picture below , i have opened a new box near the 1 Since it has already got a mine around it.
Next , look at the 3 nearer to two mines as shown below.Since it has got only two mines around it , This will surely be a mine.Lets mark it.
Once you mark it did you notice that The other 3 next to it has already got 3 mines around it and so the remaining boxes are free to open.Look below !
Well finally there is only one mine left to be discover and you guys found it ?Look there are three 2’s at the bottom and two 1’s .Only one mine is left and think where could be the mine place so that it satisfies the condition with all the numbers around it ? See below , the mine must be placed there so , the condition is satisfied.
Just open the remaining boxes and type your name !!!Enough of clicking the boxes randomly , now you know the rules.Show off to your friends and enjoy.If you have any doubts ask me in the comment section and keep visiting the sites for more interesting topics like this.
