A few things here.
One, Faerin wants to make 'games' not stories with pictures, he would prefer to have more gameplay not less.
Two, the majority of the team are all 'dinosaurs', and many of us are disabled (including myself).
The minigame in question here requires you to move the mouse in a circle.
You can skip the the minigames, though the first one there, does require that you skip the intro, because other than a couple of rare cases where people with certain systems were struggling with it (or the system is lagging way out), we seemed to have gotten that fixed.
Worst case, if you would like to save right before the minigame, I would be happy to get you passed it, at which point you would be able to skip the rest in game if you desire.
