Another common method was archiving into a SIT or CPT file and emailing to a host, which was usually an university. Games were shared in Usenet chat groups by converting into BinHex code and posting the text result (we have decoded these). About half of Mac minesweeper games require all mines to be flagged and all other squares opened to win, and several incorrectly copied the Expert level as 16x32 instead of 16x30. The more advanced games offer a choice of what key to press. The Hexmines game called chording 'Superclick' and many Mac games copied the terminology. The Macintosh had a 1 button mouse, so to flag or chord you need to press a key while you click. All the Mac versions here are ports of the Microsoft version except Hexmines (which started as a crossing game, inspired by Mines) and Trimines (which includes both styles of play, inspired by Hexmines). The most important game is Mines (1988), a minefield crossing game written by Daniel Griscom that inspired the programmers who wrote the Microsoft version.
This is a collection of Minesweeper games for the Macintosh computer from OS 6 to OS -1999.
