ChronoPick

A lock-picking puzzle game for Wear OS, inspired by the hacking mini-game in Starfield.

The Game

Rings of a lock are displayed on your Pixel Watch face. Each ring has gaps that need to be filled by the right pick. Rotate your pick using drag gestures or the crown, align the dots with the gaps, and tap to apply. Fill all the rings to advance to the next level.

  • Drag to rotate the active pick
  • Crown to cycle through available picks
  • Tap to apply the pick when aligned
  • Strategy button (center icon) to see all picks and undo moves

Five difficulty levels, each adding more rings and more picks to manage. The later levels are genuinely hard.

Inspiration

The lock-picking mechanic in Starfield features concentric rings with rotating picks — this game takes that core idea and builds a standalone puzzle experience around it for the wrist.
