A downloadable game for Windows

An entry for Dos Game Jam August 2022! Play the MS-DOS version in DOSBOX, or use the version I've pre-bundled with dosbox for your convenience.

It's your first day at your new job as a DISKSWEEPER - repairing damaged disks through everyone's favourite deductive puzzle game. Clear the disks for three customers and enjoy the visual-novel style interface.

Controls are explained ingame, but as a reference for the DISKSWEEPING minigame:

Left/Right: spin disk. (A and D also work if you prefer)

Left mouse: reveal a disk sector. If it's a mine you lose. If there are any mines adjacent to the cell you click, a number will appear - that's how many mines are in the neighbouring sectors! Use this to figure out where the mines must be. Or guess!

Right mouse: designate a suspected mine sector.

To quit: press the ingame QUIT button, then press ESCAPE from the titlescreen.


Update (08-Sep-22): Sweeper minigame was only rotatable with A/D, fixed left/right cursor keys to also rotate as per ingame instructions

Update(20-Mar-24): Fixed a dialogue crash
