I took the time once to learn how Minesweeper worked and once you get the hang of it it's fairly easy - except for the Expert level where it does land up being a game of chance - I think I only finished the Expert level 3 or 4 times. After playing it for a bit you start to recognise the patterns on sight and so know where to click to avoid the mines.
I haven't played it in ages though. Will give Hexcells a look, I'm sure I'd enjoy it.
