CLI Sweeper is my attempt of making a multiplayer command-line version of the classic game, Minesweeper.

• Tested and works well on both linux and windows.
• Uses TCP Sockets to connect players in a server-client setup.

• Singleplayer: Classic minesweeper.
• Multiplayer: 1v1 minesweeper inspired from the Battleship game. (both players place bombs and proceed to guess where each other's bombs are)

�� utils.cpp

MUST have a C++17 or above compiler and make support.

1. Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/leetuah/clisweeper.git

cd CLISweeper

2. Compile it using Makefile

make

3. If you are re-compiling the code, clean the code before re-running it using

make clean

Note: You must run a multiplayer server if you are attempting to play it.

Open a terminal and start the server. It will listen for incoming TCP connections.

./server # on linux
server.exe  # on windows

Open the terminal and launch the client.

./client # on linux
client.exe  # on windows

• Host generates a room, with a 5-digit unique room ID.
• Other client joins with the shared room code.
• The host runs the game and the game starts.

• conio for linux: For making keyboard inputs work on linux.
• Effortless menus: For generating a nice-looking terminal UI.
