About
Quantum Minesweeper is a quantum twist on the classic game of Minesweeper.
Instead of fixed mines, the board is prepared in a superposition of different mine configurations.
You interact with the board by measuring one cell, or by applying quantum gates
to modify the board and defuse the "quantum mines." In the main Clear mode,
defusing means making every mine outcome impossible.
Developed at the Nordic Institute for Theoretical Physics (Nordita), the project brings together gameplay, stabilizer mechanics, and shared browser, server, and TUI implementations.
