Monty Hall has cloned himself, and his 40 clones have hidden themselves behind 40 doors! Original Monty needs your help to round them up.

It's the Monty Hall problem, only it's also Minesweeper. Instead of avoiding mines, you try to reveal Monties. Instead of numbers, there are goats. Instead of clicking on a square to reveal it, clicking on a square reveals a completely different square, with a choice to reveal a square nearby to that one instead of the one you clicked, both randomly chosen via an overly elaborate algorithm that took me a few days to fully nail down.

As soon the vague idea of combining the two things popped into my head, I knew I had to make it, so, here it is!
