You pull up the newfound APEX HELP SYSTEM and are greeted by its FIRST-TIME USER MESSAGE.

>> Search for "minesweeper cheat codes"

You search for "MINESWEEPER CHEAT CODES" on the APEX HELP SYSTEM and receive only a MEMO written a couple of months ago. It appears your overall access to the INTERNET itself is non-existant, so Googling the phrase would be impossible. A pity.

Each path has a 50% chance of success. You know from experience that MINESWEEPER is totally random. There's no way to know what to do! Today's flawless record hangs in the balance!

You finally make a decision to assume that the top-right and bottom-left squares are mines, and act accordingly, right-clicking the bottom-left square. You are figuratively dying of suspense here!

>> click the top left

HERE IT IS. MOMENT OF TRUTH. EXPLOSION OR VICTORY?
