What is Wedge’s Trial?
Wedge challenges you with a chain of generated, always-solvable locks. Their connected mechanisms reward observation and planning rather than speed, while ore nuggets record how far your run has carried you.
Behind the trial
About Wedge's Trial
Wedge’s Trial is an endless browser lockpicking puzzle in which every opened chest leads to a tougher test.
The endless trial
Each chest raises the difficulty through more tumblers, denser connections between them, and longer solutions. Your goal is simple: gather as much ore as possible before your supply of lockpicks is exhausted.
Forged by inspiration
Why it exists
The project began as a personal attempt to turn the lockpicking mechanism from Gothic Remake into a focused browser minigame.
It is also influenced by Fingers Challenge, a fan-made lockpicking minigame inspired by Gothic Classic. Wedge’s Trial is a tribute to both ideas and to the creativity of the Gothic community.
