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?

Final Fantasy VIII card game ♥️

I second this. Triple Triad is so much fun! Fun fact, they have it in Final Fantasy XIV and it's so much fun to collect the cards and play other people. They even have tournaments.

Lol my friend sat down to play FFXIV once, but as soon as he was able to play Triple Triad, thats all he did for hours

For some reason it just wouldn't click with me, tried getting into it in multiple point of the game but no luck.

I liked all the mini games in 7 and the card game in 8. However, due to nostalgia, my favorite is the sliding puzzle game in the first one.

I love this right up until the random rule gets applied, then it's just frustrating.

Yes. Triple Triad is the only answer here.

Not to be mistaken by the abomination that is Tetra Master.
