Information

Mined Out is one of those original games combining elements of skill and strategy and a playfull way. You will have to find your way through a minefield. You cannot see the mines, you only get a warning indicating the number of mines in adjacent positions. Based on this information, you must navigate safely to the other side of the field. To spice things up, the field may contain bonus tiles and the dreaded "bug". Also, there is a time bonus for clearing the mine field quickly.

The game is in many ways very similar to the now much more known Minesweeper that has shipped with some versions of Microsoft Windows.
