Mines — Weapon Guide (AVS03)

What’s confirmed about Mines
- Mines is a weapon — one of the 24 weapons in the full game.
- It is one of only seven weapons the developer has named publicly: Mines, Pinball, Solitaire, Firewall, Bubbles, Paint and C: Drive.
- The name evokes the era’s signature desktop pastime, and the game’s own art leans into it — but no official source describes its behavior, so we don’t either.
