@Stuxnet Every number tells you how many mines there are in the 8 squares around it. Easiest thing you can start with is to mark the corners that have 1s pointing at them - then you can reveal everything else.

One with multiple unclear states would be better. I wonder if we qould make one version with a quantum computer so that the state of the board is random and unpredictable for real.

Duh, it isn't even hard. I'd love a quantum version though. Or one based on wfc algorithm.

I never realized... But this is a nice case of constraint programming...
