You have to ask yourself whether or not you'd want to work for a company
that does this type of screening. I would not have taken the job even if I
did well.

Why would you want to work for a place with such stupid
interviews in the first place? If they select their employees
based on how they play "Stranded in the Desert" or whatever the
heck that was, then it's probably best you don't work there.
I'm sure the management there is awful.
