Games of Reason

The game that I chose to play and write about was Minesweeper. The objective of Minesweeper is to try to find all of the mines in a grid by clicking on tiles surrounding them. My fastest time of completion was around 4.5 minutes in intermediate mode. The main strategy I used to win was to observe a tile that I clicked on, and determining whether or not the tiles around them were safe, AN example of this would be bombs in the corners, because that is the only place they could be. I believe that I used inductive reasoning during Minesweeper because I used previous examples to determine where the bombs were.
