What are some of the best mini-games youve played? (games inside games) (lemm.ee)

I recently played Alien Isolation, and I noticed all of the “hacking” she does on doors and computers are different types of games, like press the button at the right time, or match the images within a timer, etc.

A lot of games have these mini-games, and I was wondering which you think are the best? Or at least, didn’t get old fast?

FICSIT Productivity Packer Deluxe (Satisfactory). It's a fun little game available at The HUB once it is fully upgraded. You take Tetris-like pieces and arrange them to fit within a square, completing as many squares as you can within the time limit to determine your score.

Then again, the real mini game in Satisfactory is the planning that goes into your factory while you are not playing the game. It's the game that just keeps on giving.

The minigame is a spreadsheet on one monitor and a production planner on the other and it's awesome 👌
