Hacking

In this mini-game, there is a list of passwords to choose from, and after a choice is made, feedback will be given on how many letters are shared between the picked option and the correct answer, it will be much like the board game "Mastermind.".

Lock picking
In the lock picking mini game, you are trying to open a locked crate, and such items. You have a screwdriver, which is a weightless item always with you, and a bobby pin, which will also be a weightless item, that you collect through out your journey. Every time you fail to pick a lock you will loose the bobby pin you were using.
