Minesweeper my beloved. Is that game still on Windows PCs? I just know it's preinstalled on Debian

Solitaire and Minesweeper still exist, but they were replaced with ad-filled versions

Oh really? Didn't even know one could ruin these games.

there’s a website that has an installer for the windows 7 games, but ever since windows 8 all of the games have to be downloaded from the microsoft store and they’re all full of ads and even lag. genuinely their new minesweeper runs at a few seconds per frame most of the time on my pc

Even if some card game was to be pre installed the company removed anything it considers to be bloatware so I use the Solitaire & Minesweeper that Google has built in (Web Browser looks less sus as well)
