Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Which of the following difficulties are not available on "Minesweeper"?

Answer: Ultimate

I think there should be an ultimate because expert is too easy. Luckily, though, you are able to create a custom grid.
2. How can you produce a flag?

Answer: Right-click on a blank square

A flag indicates that you think a mine is underneath that square and thus makes it easier for you.
3. After right-clicking on a flag (in a game) what happens?

Answer: The flag turns to a question mark

Question marks are quite annoying when trying to get a fast score as it slows you down. I never use them.
4. How big (or small) is a beginner grid?

Answer: 9 x 9

The beginner grid has 10 mines.
5. How big (or small) is the intermediate grid?

Answer: 16 x 16

The intermediate grid has 40 mines.
6. How big (or small) is the expert grid?

Answer: 16 x 30

The expert grid has 99 mines.
7. What is the largest possible grid you can make in custom?

Answer: 24 x 30

I always use this size grid, but use a high number of mines so that it's actually a challenge.
8. What is the most mines you can possibly use?

Answer: 668

This means that the 24 x 30 grid is almost full.
9. "Minesweeper" was originally created for which operating system?

Answer: Windows

'Minesweeper' was created in 1981.
10. A 'Smiley with sunglasses' means?

Answer: Victory

Naturally, I've seen this many times (as have you, I'm sure)!
