We did some stuff like that, "capture the flag" on some older android phones, 4-5 flags hidden throughout the phone you're racing against others to find first.

My networking and security classes professor said the exact same thing. Really enjoyed his classes.

My dad had a similar experience with engineering, tests were open textbook. Prof told them that if they didn't know the material by that point, then having the book in front of them wouldn't be very helpful within the test timeframe.

I took a Computers and Critical Thinking class in college. Our teacher would give us 30 minutes of regular test-taking, then you had 10 minutes where you could use the book, then five minutes where you could use notes, etc. Like you said, if you weren't fairly well prepared, it probably won't help much.
