Minesweeper thermodynamics

Only tangentially related, but Dragonsweeper is an interesting extension of minesweeper where you have hit points and the "mines" have attack values. I got a better appreciation for the mechanics of minesweeper by playing it; it's surprisingly deep. https://danielben.itch.io/dragonsweeper

This is actually a quite interesting game, I played it for like 2 hours when I saw it first time.

Similar game: Mamono Sweeper https://duckduckgo.com/?q=mamono+sweeper (mamono is monster in japanese)

it's a RPG variant of Minesweeper, where you have life points, level up and fight against monster (mines) that gives you xp once killed (you loose HP if you fight a monster higher lvl than you).

it's a flash game, that had an android release at some point (it was removed from the store for some reasons)
