A minesweeper game written in C++, which provides two UIs: a console based UI, and a Qt-GUI based UI.

• Qt base 6 for the GUI module.
• A Nerd Font for the console based UI.

To build the project, you can use the provided CMakeLists.txt file. Here is, an example of how to build the project:

$ cmake -B build .
$ cmake --build build
# install to /usr/local for default
$ sudo cmake --install build
# run the console based one
$ Minesweeper
# run the GUI based one
$ Minesweeper-qt

First type three integers, separated by spaces, which are the height, weight, and the count of mines.

Then follow the guidance to type two integers as coordinates, and then select the operation you want to take on this cell. 0 to sweep, and 1 to flag.

To flag twice on the same cell will unflag it. To sweep a swept cell will reveal the cells around if there are already enough flags around this cell.

Flag all mines and sweep all non-mine cells to win the game. Sweep a mine cell to lose the game.

Just the same with other minesweeper game.

This is caused by the missing of the platform plugin. You can solve this by manually copying platforms/qwindows.dll, iconengines/qsvgicon.dll to the plugins directory where the executable file is, or uncomment the lines in src/qt_ui/CMakeLists.txt and fill in the correct path to the Qt installation.

The two .dll files can be found in the plugins directory under Qt installation directory, which is usually C:/Qt/6.x.x/mingw_64

It would look like this:

• MineSweeper
• Minesweeper-qt
• Qt6Core.dll
• Qt6Gui.dll
• Qt6Svg.dll
• Qt6Widgets.dll
• plugins
  • platforms
    • qwindows.dll
  • iconengines
    • qsvgicon.dll

Use the mingw-w64 installed with Qt to compile the project, which is usually in C:/Qt/Tools/mingwxxxx_64

This is usually caused by the encoding and the missing of the nerd font. Set the encodings of the console to UTF-8, and set a nerd font as the console's font.
