I might be in the minority here but to me the worst one is the "Monkey Wrench’ in Monkey Island.
Although, it is funny in English.
What’s yours?
I remember struggling with one of the puzzles in Myst that requires memorizing a song and playing it on a piano, but the resolution of the game and the size of the piano made the individual keys super fucking small and actually hitting the right keys in the right order was stupidly hard for a puzzle that itself wasn’t really any harder than the others in the game.
The fire marbles puzzle in Riven. It’s outrageously difficult, and it was one of the major complaints about the game at the time. Even now, it’s still very very difficult. Way more so than any other puzzle in the game.
There’s a few in The 11th Hour that I think might qualify lol
Wow, that really brings me back
The cat hair moustache puzzle in Gabriel Knight 3 is pretty infamous, for good reason.
Probably something in Gobliins 2
