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

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

I love the idea of little exhibitions of solutions to the same problem made over the course of gaming history. This does so wonderfully with lockpicking, though I do wish it had something of a conclusion or drew more lines connecting the different systems. In that way it is really just a museum: the artifacts exist for me to see and come with mostly matter-of-fact descriptions, but actually making something of that info is up to you.

It's very rough...the center-aligned text hurts and the video for PickLock doesn't play. It doesn't need to be fancy, though, you get the information (except for the PickLock video) regardless.

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

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

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.
