Keyboard Minesweeper

Hi HN! Here's a little hobby project of mine. I reimagined Minesweeper for the keyboard warriors out there. No mouse. No distractions. Just lightning-fast gameplay, tight controls, and a design built for speedrunners and puzzle lovers. Give it a try: https://www.kb-minesweeper.com/ Would love your feedback, or see if you can beat my best times: 5.41s on small, 46.51s on medium.

Keyboard Minesweeper launched on May 8, 2025 with 7 votes, #3,816 of 7,905 launches that month. The site was still online in September 2026, 1 year on.

What it does

Tired of fumbling around with a mouse? Keyboard Minesweeper brings the classic grid-clearing fun to your fingertips. Navigate, flag, and clear mines entirely with the keyboard, no clicking required. Ready to beat your best time? Give it a go!

Play Minesweeper using only your keyboard. No mouse needed. Fast, precise keyboard controls, instant loading, and classic beginner–expert modes. Learn Minesweeper keybinds and improve your times.

    Hi everyone! For several months now I've been stuck on the idea of a Minesweeper game that isn't just single player. This is what I came up with: • Live games allowing several people to play at the same time • Scoring system rewarding correct moves • Grid size, mines count, and players count set to make games as balanced as possible

  • I built a MCP server so Claude can play Minesweeper2025 · github.com · ▲123

    Hi! I build an MCP server that allows clients to play Minesweeper. It turns out that Claude is not very good at it (makes obvious mistakes, hasn't won a single game on a 9x9 board after many attempts). I am curious how I can prompt Claude to do better?

  • Tapflow 2.0▲1,125

    We built Tapflow for devs, designers, PMs, and tech folks who’ve been sitting on internal docs, templates, and systems — but never productized them. Upload a PDF, notes, or workshop deck, and Tapflow drafts a structured product (with chapters, teaser and pricing plans). It’s good for AI kits, onboarding guides, design systems, and frameworks. You can sell through Stripe, LemonSqueezy, or PayPal. Real-time collaboration is in early beta. No site builder, no LMS — clean design and just focused tools to ship. Fully bootstrapped and just launched on PH today →…
