I am not sure which game, but I have heard of the first one.
Secondly, the other is Link's Adventure. And yes, that is actually his name if you did not know, since another character mentioned him in game.

If you're stuck on a puzzle, just start combining all the objects in your inventory in a nonsensical combination until it makes a cool gizmo that is obviously required and is most definitely the only way to get past a section.

Killing someone is allowed as long as no one sees it.

Although it is geometrically impossible and ridiculous, rotating a piece will both alter the configuration of the piece and teleport the piece translationally.

Throwing money on the floor apparently reduces the value of it, so you gain less coins if you drop it on the ground.

I have learned that the cake is, in fact, a lie.

I have learned that science isn't really science unless the test subject is in danger of losing their life.

I have learned that, if a person manages to live a life filled with success and happiness, they can purchase a drink that will make them young again. The same applies for their pets.

Correct on all answers!

Number 3 was specifically the co-op portion of Portal 2 while number 4 was The Sims 3 with Pets expansion.

Kingdom Hearts for the first.
Closest thing to the second I know is Harvest Moon, where they make a bottle out of nowhere when you milk them.
The last can be many games like Assassins Creed and the first few Grand Theft games if I am not mistaken.

Only the second one I meant Rune Factory: Fantasy harvest moon (wich is the same basicly),
And the last one, I know many games have that, but the first game that I played with that was Bionicle the game for pc ^^

Tetris is the correct answer!

I learned that while you may be able to command the elements, you can still only have exactly 15 items of equal size in your inventory and in terms of size: 30 herbs = 30 potions = Short Sword = Sol Blade = Fairy Ring = Chain Mail = Running Shirt.

Probably too much information but then it does kind of describe nearly every JRPG in existence, plus it went mostly unnoticed in the public eye.
