Boxes and Bombs
Boxes and Bombs is a game about a bunch of boxes and the bombs in some of them.
How to Play
Upon starting a game, the player is presented with a grid of boxes. Revealing a box will either leave behind an empty spot or a number ranging from 1 to 6. The number indicates how many bombs can be found around that particular field. Bombs in diagonal directions are not counted.
The game is won when all boxes are either revealed or marked and lost when a bombed box is revealed.
