I want to get one of these in the mail! These Minesweeper Postcards from Connect Design (KR) bring the classic timewasting Windows 3.1 game to you in a lotto-like format. The postcards come in either easy with 80 mines, or hard with 120. Instead of clicking with your mouse, you scratch off the boxes to reveal the numbers that show how many mines are around- but don’t scratch off the mines or you lose!

There’s even little stickers to place on the cards with flags to mark the mines, an exploded bomb for when you (inevitably) lose, and happy or sad faces to place at the top- all just like the real game. No I don’t understand how you’re supposed the mail the card and stickers together either. The good thing about these cards is that they are much easier to play with your boss looking over your shoulder. The bad thing- they’re from Korea and cost $2 per card.
