Need Suggestion for an alarm device hacking minigame

[Rocco]

as the titel said, i want to make a little minigame, where the player have to
deactivate an alarm device.
but i dont know which minigame is the best solution for this.
in chrome the hacking part was a memory clone, but i guess there are better solutions possible.
thanks for suggestions. :-)

There always is the System Shock 2 approach, but that was rather dependent on luck.

Try Covert Action.

thanks,  i will try covert action but had unfortunatly no possibility to play system shock right now.
i played it years ago, but cannot remember how the hacking part works.
please, can you explain it a little bit for me?

if you are interested in seeing how system shock does the hacking you can search youtube and also read FAQs on how it works.

I came in here to say Covert Action. The basis (for any hacking like yours) is on circuits and so the player has to select the right line. You could even just have images and the player has to trace the correct line - perhaps with some mathematical equation to work out crossing wires (e.g. the correct 'end' adds up to 9 so two wires at X lengths of 4 and 5 are correct).

thx for your help, guys.
i know covert action, its a great game and its a good base for a alarm hacking system.
but have no possibility to play system shock II,
and after watching 2hour system shock II videos on youtube, i know that murphys law is still in effect  .
no system shock hackers on youtube.
i played a game long time ago, with a hacking sequenz, but cant remember what it was.
so covert action is great, but im looking also forward to other suggestions.
