8 Exact Moments Video Games Ruined Friendships

Some of my friends when asked would say I'm something of a "Jigsaw-head" and not just because I've got a weird-shaped dome or a penchant for deadly traps, but because I utterly adore puzzle games.

I won't say that I'm the best at them, but any chance of rubbing the two gray cells left floating in my skull alongside full, memorized playthroughs of a Dogs Life and images of Mr. Bones, is an opportunity I'll gladly take.

However as has been stated many times before, "knowledge is a weapon" and boy howdy can you use that to a deadly extent if you're a complete and utter rotter. For example, let's just say you've completed a particularly devious Professor Layton brain teaser and see someone else struggling along with the same puzzle. There's a feeling that comes from that situation that is akin to a king looking over a peasant toiling the fields, a sense of smug satisfaction that you've already done the hard graft and are now able to lord it over others.

However, you should never, EVER, use that knowledge to ruin their day by telling them the answer to that puzz-Oh brilliant you already did. Fantastic, well you might as well get that idea of them being involved in your future because you've just done a speedrun to end a friendship and now hold the world record.
