Missing the IKEA Experience? Check out Home Improvisation

Everyone has heard of IKEA, whether through word of mouth, personal experience, or through references on television. I will admit that an IKEA does not exist in the state that I hail from, but I am well aware of its popularity and how many people can struggle with the assembly of IKEA's furniture. For those that do not have the opportunity to experience such struggles, there is a solution to gain sympathy for your friends.

Introducing, Home Improvisation, the ultimate furniture building simulator, with 100% frustration included! The game, which has been released recently, is just about taking pieces of furniture from the boxes you receive and putting the pieces together for your house. You can play with three other people, creating the ultimate building experience... or the ultimate fued among family members.

Either way, you can pick up this game at the website The Stork Burnt Down free of charge, or play at Kongregate. Apparently, the game was developed between four people - Aj Kolenc, Jessica Jackson, Colton Spross, and Josh Faubel - in 48 hours as part of the 2015 Global Game Jam, held last month in Atlanta, GA.

If anything, this game immediately reminds me of Surgeon Simulator 2013, and after playing it for a few minutes, I have experienced the same amount of frustration. For those that are brave enough to tackle the responsibility of constructing a table, I salute you. However, it is highly recommend to invite three other friends to bring draw out the maximum amount of irritation and rage from this game.
