Почему в видеоиграх такие тупые мини-игры?
Во многих видеоиграх есть мини-задачки, которые моделируют какое-то якобы сложное действие. Например, вскрытие замков, взлом компьютера, какие-нибудь типа научные исследования в сюжете. И я не помню, видел ли хоть раз в жизни не тупую мини-игру. В лучшем случае у вас будет что-то типа головоломки "Трубопровод". В худшем — задачка уровня цветной пирамидки для младенцев.
Почему так? Нельзя сказать, что все видеоигры спроектированы для глупых или для детей. Иногда в основном сюжете или механике игры есть элементы, которые требуют уметь хотя бы чуть-чуть шевелить мозгами. Но почему нигде не делают интересные мини-игры, которые было бы сложно решать? Ведь образцов для этого дофига: начиная с какого-нибудь "Сапёра" и заканчивая Wordle.
А там блин везде соедини точки, да подвинь квадратики. Кажется, попытка сделать интересную мини-игру была в Cyberpunk в системе взлома, но не удалась — хорошая идея реализовывалась авторами, которые плохо понимают, как работают игры и вообще интерактивные системы, в итоге для хоть какой-нибудь решаемости сделали сами наборы данных супер примитивными.
Знаете ли вы примеры игр с интересными мини-задачками, если только вся игра не построена на них (как например The Witness, хотя там больше половины задачек очень скучные)?

🦇 A €200 million railway section in Germany is stalled because of bats
In Baden-Württemberg, residents of the Calw district are waiting for train traffic to resume on a railway section and tunnel whose repair took decades and cost over €200 million. But there is one insurmountable obstacle — more than 1,000 bats living in the tunnel between Calw and Weil der Stadt stations.
These animals are under strict protection, so they cannot be removed. An unusual solution was found — to build a protective concrete wall inside the tunnel. On one side, trains will run; on the other, the bats can sleep undisturbed.
This will require 300 concrete blocks and about €80 million. Additionally, ultrasonic sensors will be installed to help the bats navigate their new shelter. However, it is still unknown how quickly they will adapt to the new structure, and this will determine when the tunnel can reopen.
⚠️ This is not an isolated case: in Kiel, 900 bats prevented the demolition of an old swimming pool because the animals refused to move to new shelters.
🦇 Sometimes even very small creatures can have a big impact on massive infrastructure projects!

🇩🇪#Germany: Men in Germany aged 17 to 45 are required to obtain approval from the Bundeswehr (German armed forces) career center before leaving the country for more than three months, whether for study, work, or travel.
The provision was included in a broader military reform package approved in December, but went largely unnoticed until it was reported by the German outlet Frankfurter Rundschau. The measure received little public attention at the time and was not widely discussed.
Despite the law being in place, it remains unclear how this requirement will be implemented in practice, particularly for individuals who were unaware of it or who have already left the country.

Heidelberg, #Germany🇩🇪
Heidelberg was not affected by the bombing of the Second World War, so it was preserved in its original medieval form - a castle, numerous churches and abbey, ancient streets.

🇩🇪#Germany: Cockroach swarm agents 🪳
Swarm Biotactics, a deep tech start-up based in Kassel, Germany, specialising in “bio-robotics”: putting miniature sensor backpacks on cockroaches and then sending these as swarms into environments inaccessible for conventional robots, drones, or humans such as collapsed structures following natural disasters, GPS-denied areas, or contested warfare zones. The swarm of roaches act as real-time data agents 🪳 The company has received €13 million in funding so far from a consortium of international investors, including Vertex Ventures US, Possible Ventures, and Capnamic 🪳
