The Non-Expert: IKEA

Ikea Walkthrough v2.3.1
Just a day after I post my Ikea experience, an unawares friend shows me an Ikea survival guide in text-based adventure game format. Excerpt:
IKEA is a fully immersive, 3D environmental adventure that allows you to role-play the character of someone who gives a shit about home furnishings. In traversing IKEA, you will experience a meticulously detailed alternate reality filled with garish colors, clear-lacquered birch veneer, and a host of NON-PLAYER CHARACTERS (NPCs) with the glazed looks of the recently anesthetized.
