A game best played with the auto-complete switched off as I discovered the hard way. "Open cabinets" doesn't work (and this is what the Runner supplies when you start typing) yet "open cabinet" allows me to open the cabinets (plural) and retrieve an item I need. Painful.

Like Mel's other short games, this one is quite amusing although it also seemed a little too short - even for a game written in an hour. Maybe it could be expanded into a full size game and given a few more "hilarious" pranks to perform. Problems with the cabinets/cabinet aside, this was a reasonably easy game.
