"how was I supposed to figure out THAT?" The worst one of this type, is the official solution to getting money from the slot machine in Leisure Suit Larry. You have to save the game state, play the slot machine, and if you win you save game state again. If you lose, you restore form the last save point, and repeat as necessary (until you get enough money). So there is no way to get past that puzzle without "breaking the 4th wall", so to speak.
