It's too bad that that last sentence is so easily interpreted as a 'these illogical puzzles killed the adventure games' statement...

Actually when I first read it, and seeing the whole article, it seemed rather sarcastic, like, if you look at the most logical solutions, and then the whole sceme of what is the real solution, it does seem quite funny actually. I mean, when playing EMI or TLJ (the only of this article I have played, I must confess), I wasn't that much aware of the fact that, when written out, it seems so illogical or far-fetched. I mean, it did seem somewhat weird, but not as exagerrated as when you read it in this article, and then it gets kinda funny when you realize how stupid it actually is.
But as Ascovel said, it mostly underlines the creative thinking that is found in adventure games.
