This is a thread devoted to every time any one of us has gone in the wrong direction for a puzzle solution, only to realize our mistake after checking a walkthrough or sleeping on it. Just remember to be specific about which games these puzzles are from, and feel free to hide what you like in a spoiler tag. I'll start.

Moai Better Blues

I didn't heat up Glen Miller's teapot,

because I thought the Wind Moai
was supposed to provide the train whistle.

I didn't use the red slime snail on Stinky's gong,

because I was trying
to put it in Mr. Spatula's washing machine to shake off the ear-shaped
shell.

They Stole Max's Brain

I didn't use the audio tour on Sal,

because I thought T. Palinus was what got rubbed on the Gorilla's face in the vision of the future.

I didn't have Credit Card Max attack the pyramid of corndogs,

because I thought I had to swap him out with Frankie's card.

I had to use Charlie Ho-Tep on Harry and Superball to make them say the correct words for the Seance
