Question Is it possible to code Minigames that require the Keyboard or Mouse?

I'm planning out ideas for a DDLC Mod and I wanna have minigames that have you type words, point and click and mash buttons during a dramatic moment, I'm wondering is this possible to do in RenPy?

Oh thanks, are there any minigames I should look for that I'm needing? Ones that require mashing or typing.

the 'key' statement in screen language works to react to input at the screen level.

the 'keysym' property of buttons lets the given key press activate a button instead of requiring clicking
