A test of four AI coding agents tasked with rebuilding the classic Minesweeper game revealed a blend of successes and shortcomings. While the agents successfully implemented core gameplay mechanics such as chording and flagging, they varied in UI polish, sound options, and development speed. OpenAI's Codex, for instance, took roughly twice as long to produce a functional version compared to Claude Code. The evaluation highlights both the promise of AI-driven development and the current limits that developers must still address. Read more →
