Number Fields

How to Play Number Fields

Objective:

The goal of the game is to uncover all the tiles without hitting a bomb. Use the numbers and colors revealed on tiles to deduce the locations of bombs and place flags to mark suspected bomb locations.

Controls:

- Left-Click: Reveal a tile.

- Right-Click: Place or remove a flag on a tile.

Gameplay:

1. Revealing Tiles:

   - Left-click on any tile to reveal it.

   - If the tile is a bomb, the game ends. Bombs are indicated with a bomb image.

   - If the tile is a treasure, you earn points. Treasures are indicated with a diamond image.

   - If the tile is empty, it will show a number indicating how many adjacent tiles contain bombs.

   - The background color of the tile indicates the number of adjacent treasures:

     - 1 Adjacent Treasure: Yellow background.

     - 2 Adjacent Treasures: Blue background.

     - 3 or More Adjacent Treasures: Green background.

   - If the revealed tile has zero adjacent bombs, all adjacent tiles that are also safe will automatically be revealed.

2. Flagging Tiles:

   - Right-click on a tile to place a flag, marking it as a suspected bomb location.

   - Right-click again to remove the flag.

   - Flags are indicated with a red exclamation mark image and are useful for keeping track of where you believe bombs are based on the numbers and colors revealed on adjacent tiles.

3. Winning the Game:

   - You win by revealing all non-bomb tiles.

   - The game ends when all non-bomb tiles are revealed or if you reveal a bomb tile.

4. Using the Slider:

   - Adjust the slider at the top to set the grid size (between 10 and 30).

   - Click the 'Reset!' button to start a new game with the selected grid size.

5. Score:

   - Your score is displayed at the top of the screen and updates as you reveal treasure tiles. Each treasure tile earns you 10 points.
