Minesweeper Game

A minesweeper game similar to the one in Windows, but implemented in pure MATLAB

You are now following this Submission

Consider playing minesweeper in Matlab? Here's what you might want to look at.

I implement a minesweeper game with pure MatLab language. It basically imitates the minesweeper in Microsoft Windows. You can open a cell by left clicking and tag a cell as mine by right clicking. You can switch between three levels: beginner, intermediate, and advanced. There's also a timer to measure the time that you take to complete the game.

The usage is very simple. Copy the m-file (there's only one m-file) to anywhere that you like. Just type in

minesweepgame;

then you can start the game. Or you can type in

minesweepgame beginner;
minesweepgame intermediate;
minesweepgame advanced;

to start a game at desired level. You can also switch between different levels in the GUI.

In addition, you can also play a customized game, i.e. when you enter

minesweepgame(20, 25, 50);

you start a game with 50 mines in a 20 x 25 field.
