Chapter 2. How to Play

You have to use the mouse and its three buttons to uncover or to flag the squares (with two-buttoned mice, clicking the middle button is generally achieved by simultaneously pressing the left and the right buttons). Here are the details:

Note

These are the default settings. The mouse buttons can be reprogrammed. For more information, see the section entitled Game Options.

The KMines Screen


The KMines Screen

The KMines screen consists of:

  • A Box showing you the number of mines still left to be marked. Every time you flag a bomb site, this number will decrease by one.

    Note

    This box does not determine if you are right or wrong, but only how many mines you need to theoretically mark before you are done with this game.

    In this example, there are 40 mines to be marked.

  • A Yellow Smiley Face. Clicking this will start a new game. If you lose the game, it will become a frown.

  • The box on the right shows how much time this round has taken. The shortest time for each level is listed as the high score.

  • The playing area. This will vary in size depending on the difficulty level of the game. In this example, it consists of 256 squares. This is where you play the game.
