## Overview

This is a standalone Java Swing Minesweeper game. The player interacts with the UI; Game coordinates board updates, win/loss handling, and statistics, while Board and Score persist game state and records in the Access database. The README documents save/load, and sampled code confirms board and score database operations; omitted Game sections limit certainty about the exact save/load call sequence.

Main entry points: [`Code/src/minesweeper/Game.java`](https://github.com/harismuneer/minesweeper-desktop-game/blob/master/Code/src/minesweeper/Game.java) (Game controller), [`Code/src/minesweeper/UI.java`](https://github.com/harismuneer/minesweeper-desktop-game/blob/master/Code/src/minesweeper/UI.java) (Swing interface), [`Code/src/minesweeper/Board.java`](https://github.com/harismuneer/minesweeper-desktop-game/blob/master/Code/src/minesweeper/Board.java) (Board logic), [`Code/src/minesweeper/Score.java`](https://github.com/harismuneer/minesweeper-desktop-game/blob/master/Code/src/minesweeper/Score.java) (Scores and times)
