Oh yeah, Ski or Die I know too, that one was nifty! And I also remember all of my classmates always wanted to play Pipe or was it Pipe Dreams (I think I had both).. if you stood about 5 meters from the screen, the green liquid looked mint-colored, and that was _so cool_.
Oh, and as for Minesweep tricks, if you're in a situation with a long wall of 1-squares starting from the top or the bottom or somewhere so that you can count them, it's worth clicking those screens out that cannot have a mine
___________
O O O 1
O O O 1
O O O 1
O O O 1
like that, so you click
____________
O O O 1
O O O 1
O O A 1
O O O 1
and if your A is "1", you can click more:
______________
O O O 1
O B O 1
O B 1 1
O B O 1
(basically, everything else except those two squares above and below the A=1 square, since the one mine has to be in those two.. this sorta reasoning often gets you out of stuck places.)
