In the cycle of five virtues game, initially Spleen represents earth, Qin dynasty represents water so Chen Ran jumps on that, now earth generates metal, and earth destroys water, so these two cannot be jumped on. Chen ran reasons that Qin is ok as it was the first dynasty to follow Zou Yan's doctrine. I don't seen how this is anything but a dangerous guess as it doesn't really matter if Qin came first if the danger is earth. But it turns out the danger was fire and it was reasoned wrong, isn't it pure luck they didn't get burnt?

First, It is not a critique on the novel. Second, I can be wrong so if let me know your thoughts.

Sinful hospital instance:
One of the three star plays tried to give up a judgement attempt on the causality skill player to test if the lie was erased or not. If I remember correctly, I read one has to believe wholeheartedly to perform to give up a judgement attempt, otherwise in the first chamber chen ran could have repeatedly give up judgement attempts to simply find lin xueyin as the liar. The next one is either a reasoning flaw by chen ran or just an overall error. It was repeatedly said that eternal kingdom could erase all things made by skills, and maybe also i read somewhere that items in secret chambers could also be destroyed. When Chen ran used the rope in the second secret chamber which he shouldn't have in the first place, using the eternal kingdom to erase the eyes, should also erase the rope making him fall to his death. If indeed the skill was limited by space, then Chen Ran when deducing Long Hui's gui yu said that, Long Hui being a fourth star player who was using a skill to make him forget that, is out of the question. Since eternal kingdom would have nullified his Gui Yu. However, if items from the eighteenth layer cannot be erased in the secret chamber then why would skills applied in the eighteenth layer be nullified in the secret chamber.
(I could be very wrong here)

The inception themed hell level difficulty game in the hardest 1star secret chamber, in the third layer of the dream where chen ran had to manifest himself as the grandpa of the adopted son(s?). But in the next cruise ship layer he had to ask the son to transform into his grandpa so he could know what he looked like. So how did he transform into the grandpa when not knowing what he looked like?

Or in the second layer when he stops at the second layer and the man in black shoots the second elevator at the first floor even though he could see it stopped at the second floor so is it not obvious that chen ran could have stopped at the second floor and run down the stairs.

Or the fact that the first tone second tone third tone game with qiu yinong, different regions or even different schools and different books use different coloring schemes for the different mandarin tones, it would not make sense it use a specific color scheme that someone might know but other might not.

Or in the self-killing game(although this one is somewhat subjective), when the fake chen ran knew that saying he is squatting might incur a lie as he is not sure whether his eternal kingdom was activated yet went ahead to say it despite showing that the main chen ran is more careful and he was just moments ago thinking about how this could still be a fantasy(and the fact he did just complied with the real chen ran for most of the time). It was a forced weakness in my opinion.

and the passcode deduction things are always somewhat subjective.
For example in Qiu Yinong's hilbert's infinite hotel, the last two digits could be any number, and they would still work following Qiu Yinong's reasoning.
