wow! some lockpicking minigames in games are genuine ass. a lesson in appreciating what we take for granted

A bundle of minigames focused around lockpicking. Interesting for a bit. An extra half star for it being open source.

straightforward & no frills, but a worthwhile exploration of the minigame. insightful historical contexts & analyses too; well worth the two hours & one minute of playtime.

really lovely little thing & i wish we'd see more of its kind.

Very short, and less informative than I was hoping for. Could have used interviews with original devs, some more deep dives into process, etc.

very short, though to be fair it does do what it says on the tin so i can't really complain

This is less of a game and more of an educational game design piece of the simple concept of Lockpicking in games. Definitely interested if you have the slightest interest in game design.
