When the video started, my mind went straight to obtuse puzzles where you could only succeed through guess and check. I’ve even played some with bugs that would soft lock you out of winning if you saved at the wrong time (i.e. you can’t reset the puzzle and can lose essential pieces). Or puzzles based on RNG where you literally cannot win and need to reset the puzzle if something happens.

But I agree, this is so much worse than all those, mostly because it’s obvious that it’s intentional. In all of my above examples, once you know the answer (i.e. maybe you look it up), execution is quick.

So thanks for sharing the frustration, I’ll never play that game.
