A classic Minesweeper desktop game built with WPF and C#. Supports three difficulty presets, a custom game mode, and an auto-expanding flood-fill reveal — all in a clean, native Windows desktop experience.
- Three difficulty levels — Easy (9×9, 10 mines), Medium (16×16, 40 mines), Expert (30×16, 99 mines)
- Left-click to reveal a cell; stepping on a mine ends the game
- Right-click to place or remove a flag on a suspected mine
- Flood-fill reveal — clicking an empty cell recursively uncovers all connected empty cells and their numbered borders
- Live mine counter — shows remaining unflagged mines, updated in real time via data binding
- Custom game mode — configure board width, height, and mine count (manual or auto-generated) in a dedicated settings dialog
- Win detection — game congratulates you when all mines are correctly flagged
