** And even for Americans who [[No Sense of Direction|just don't know the compass directions]] of baseball fields.
* [[Infocom]]'s ''[[Leather Goddesses of Phobos]]'' starts out with the player in a prison cell. Some players have been stuck in that cell for ''hours'' -- {{spoiler|the cell door isn't locked. When you go into Trent/Tiffany's cell, they admit they never thought of trying the door.}}
* ''[[Scooby Doo]] Mystery Game'' involves a puzzle where you actually have to microwave a cowbell that's lodged inside a block of ice. [[Violation of Common Sense|Metal. In a microwave. Yeah. That makes sense.]] Also, you can't enter a maze until you hang one of those little tree-shaped air fresheners on a tree branch. Then, in order to see once you're in the maze involves building a homemade flashlight, one piece of which is behind a refrigerator. Which you're supposed to just push out of the way. That wouldn't be such a leap if you played Fred, but you play Shaggy...
* ''Death Gate'' had two infuriating puzzles of this type.
** One was opening the treasure room in the tower of the Brotherhood. You have a code list, but all it says is "Buy their time to die" above a list of in-universe Arianus continents. You also can find a book that explains the codes change based on the time of month. To open the wall with lots of hands, you have to look at what continent currently obscures the sun from that place, then use that continent to figure out what word to use from the "Buy their time to die" phrase (it's the word above the name of the continent) then if it was for example "die", you have to press Diamond Iron Emerald hands. First letters for the materials they're made of. Aside from the Brotherhood book, and the code list itself, there are NO clues about this whatsoever. Good luck getting this without a walkthrough. They do show you the materials in the item descriptions at least.
