A good DM will also say that to mess you up when you're about to solve something.

I know a DM that created a fake puzzle room, and asked that for everything. They were in the room for an hour before realizing that the door was unlocked

Lol that wouldn't work with my party.

*enters puzzle room and reads riddle

Half Orc: I'm gonna open the door.

DM: Doesn't work. It's locked

Half Orc: I'm gonna open the door, but harder

I'm going to open the door...with my axe.

Did it worked ?

The big lockpick always works.

I presented my party with a locked door to which they has the key. Took 20 minutes and a chime of opening to get through.

This was not a puzzle. I'm afraid of giving them a puzzle.

Indeed. I often do that kind of trick, just to keep them on their toes :)
