Real-time:
All are unforgiving: you die, with no autorestore.
*) killing Crane's guards
Gotta be prompt, but not hard if you know what to do.
*) killing Crane
Lots of time.
*) killing Sartain's guards
Gotta be prompt, but not hard if you know what to do.
*) shooting down Sartain's air-car
Lots of time.
*) escaping Beckett
Gotta be prompt, but not hard if you know what to do.

Reasonability/Mimesis:
*) killing Crane's guards
The layout of the scenario seems wrong. The armed guard has you in his
sights, so he should be able to easily track you and get you before you
can draw. Guess he's just having a bad day.
*) key to dreamweb plinth
What was it doing in Eden's microwave? It's useless anyway: why are locks
required in the dreamweb?
*) tv station brochure (on desk)
You have to explicitly pick it up to find the card underneath. Reading
(USEing) should have been sufficient, since that implies picking it up.
*) Sartain building security hand-scanner
Shooting the scanner device would not accomplish anything other than a
full security alert and lockdown.
*) boathouse laser
Shorting it out should not cause a major explosion.
-----
Difficulty:
*) TV station guard
Not so much difficult as surprising: you are not a nice guy here.
*) Beckett's password
It's a copy-protection challenge, but not explicit.

Comments:
*) searching dreamweb halls for correct door
Meaningless bit of tedium.
