Minigames in Subnautica

With the abundance of mundane tasks and just plain waiting in Subnautica, I figured maybe some simple minigames would fit nicely when crafting various things and analyzing fragments. The format I have in mid would be similar to System Shock 2, Bioshock, or Moonbase Alpha. System Shock 2 and Bioshock include games where you simply line up three valid nodes or complete a fluid line just like in the Windows 95 game, Pipe Dream. Moonbase Alpha has a more skill-oriented game where you have to quickly but carefully draw new circuit board traces with solder. I think a minigame of this sort could easily find its way into Subnautica without feeling out of place or harmful to the experience.

    That immediately reminded me of the welding parts in Metroid Prime Corruption. After getting the proper tool for it you have to weld certain chips back together by pointing with the Wiimote. It's basicaly a hot wire game. Here's an image

    Yes! This is the kind of thing I'm going for!

    I think if done right these "minigames" could be really sweet! Many games have some... lockpicking is a really prominent example of most RPGs.

    How about cutting open a supply crate? And reconstructing technology from fragments could serve as a game too.
