"Keep the action rolling with the Etrian Odyssey series!"
 
   If you have a Nintendo DS, you like dungeon crawling, making your own maps, a difficulty level that leaves with a feeling of accomplishment when you get through a hard area, then this series is for you. I've been playing the third installment for about two weeks now and have made it to floor three. The most wonderful aspect of the Etrian series is that you have to draw the map on the lower screen while you explore.

   I don't have a DS, I just enjoy the mental image produced by misreading the title as Etrigan Odyssey. After participating in the siege of Troy, Jason Blood takes ten years to find his way back to Ithaca, which is a bit ridiculous given that it's only 170 miles if you remember to get off I-88 in Bainbridge.

How about we add in that in each game the dungeon is always called the Labyrinth of Yggdrasill. Every time that I try to imagine a dungeon like this I see Odin laughing his ass off as he sends people trough a hole in the world tree with some graph paper and a sharpie.

"Adventure Log, day 1:I woke up in this weird garden. A big guy with a beard and eye patch (Pirate?) put a ream of graph paper in one hand and a sharpie in the other. He blathered on about about cartography for a bit, told me I would be "Handsomely paid", and proceeded to put boot to rear. When I woke up again, uncomfortable experience really, I found myself surrounded by tree's, monsters out of my wildest dreams, and this freaking graph paper. Oh, and a knife. Yay.

Wooden as Odin wants to see what your sense of humor is when being attacked by carnivorous plants.

   Right then. The Beginner knife.

Because everyone knows the first set of adventuring gear you get in any RPG, regardless of name, is made of wood.

Well do I remember the frustration of trying to accomplish anything vs. the geth in the original Mass Effect with the wooden close-order-drill dummy rifle.

That's why you have your homeworld set to Jyurai. Their wooden rifles work.

   I'm waiting for a starter gun named something like 'Improvised Kindling Expulsion Apparatus' that 'requires some assembly.' The hardest part of the quest will be finding the Allen wrench.

"Yes, Private Finkler?"

"Is there supposed to be a sandwich bag full of bits of wood left over?"

"Yes, Private, there is. Why else would the assembly instructions consist entirely of abstract pictograms?"

   Long ago in days of yore
It all began with a god named Thor
There were Vikings and boats and some plans for a furniture store
It's not a bodega, it's not a mall
They sell things for apartments small
Er than mine, as if there were apartments smaller than mine

IKEA (IKEA, yeah yeah yeah)
Just some oak and some pine and a handful of Norsemen
IKEA (IKEA, yeah yeah yeah)
Selling furniture for college kids and divorced men
Everyone has a home
And if you don't have a home you can buy one there

Rent a car or take the bus
Lay your cash down and put your trust
In the land where the furniture folds to a much smaller size
Billy the bookcase says hello
So does a table whose name is Ingo
And the chair is a ladderback birch but his friends call him Karl

IKEA (IKEA, yeah yeah yeah)
Just some oak and some pine and a handful of Norsemen
IKEA (IKEA, yeah yeah yeah)
Selling furniture for college kids and divorced men
Everyone has a home
And if you don't have a home you can buy one there

IKEA, plywood, brushed steel
IKEA, meatballs, tasty
IKEA, Allen wrenches
All of them for free
All of them for me

I'm sorry I said IKEA sucks
I just bought a table for sixty bucks
And a chair and a lamp and a shelf and some candles for you
I was a doubter just like you
'Til I saw the American dream come true
In New Jersey they got a goddamn Swedish parade

IKEA (IKEA, yeah yeah yeah)
Just some oak and some pine and a handful of Norsemen
IKEA (IKEA, yeah yeah yeah)
Selling furniture for college kids and divorced men
Everyone has a home
And if you don't have a home you can buy one there

Ow! I think I just broke my brain when my mental photoshop brought a remarkably detailed image up.
If only I could draw so as to share the pain.
